I’m still waiting to see what an example of a “Rare Book” is supposed to be. Are these first edition copies of To Kill A Mockingbird and Ulysses? Or are we just talking about books by new authors that were never widely distributed or reprinted, because their sales numbers were no good.

I guess I’ll never know.
Rare meaning uncommon, hard to find, not many copies are available.
But that doesn’t necessarily mean valuable. These have been sitting on shelves in warehouses unsold for a long time. No one else wanted them.
But let me be clear, I’m against their destruction for private use. The digitized copies should be made freely available, if it all possible.
