I dunno; I don't think they jail people for petty theft - nor do I
think they should; much as I like libraries and books, I don't think
stealing two books, even for as k00ky a reason as wigging out over
their contents, should draw jail time, unless there's something very
special about the books (like a Shakespeare first folio).

If they have two brain cells to rub together they won't even let her in
the library again, much less let her borrow anything!
