It would be rather handy if you were a WW librarian though, wouldn't it,
especially given the the kind of attrition that popular books get in
libraries. Or the fact that very ancient books would be long since out of
print but might need a pristine copy producing.

Maybe Irma Pince knows a "Librarian's Copy" spell that would allow her to
make extra copies.

Maybe (mind working even more wildly now) books have (or can have)
protections built in against that sort of thing and attempts by the amateur
bibliophile to copy them would lead to very unpleasant consequences!

But JKR alone knows all
