Has anyone conducted a recent (or even not-so-recent) lit search on
"lost books", "book theft", library theft or associated topics?   Do you
know of good lists of references on the subject?  Particularly good
sources?  Anyone out there currently pursuing this topic and interested
in talking or sharing ideas?  I'm beginning to dig in and so just now
looking at what's been done.
Thanks,
