Alla:

Um, quick question. Could you provide canon for "stole" Snape's 
spells as opposed to seeing how Snape openly used it on somebody 
else and then using it? I mean, I am also speculating but 
considering the fact that Lupin tells Harry that at some point half 
of the school used Levicorpus ( paraphrasing), I find it a bit far 
fetched that half of the school would steal spells from Snape as 
in " go looking for his notes and taking those notes away from him". 

I speculate that he was not opposed to using his spells in public at 
all.

JMO,
