It sounds like you are more of an expert on Inter-Library Loans than I am.  If, as it sounds like you are saying, I have access to all publications from all public and private (or maybe not private) libraries in all 49 countries that offer ILL.  I&#x27;m assuming, for the purposes of this discussion, that all public and private? libraries in those 49 countries participate in this ILL program.  As long as I have a library card to one of said libraries, then I think it&#x27;s safe to say that a publisher who publishes a fixed number of books and sells them exclusively to libraries (public or private?) which may or may not be far away from where I live, is not as big of a problem as I originally thought.  Technically one could argue that I have &quot;access&quot; to those books.
