Im running numbers to locate how much money it would cost to supply every library in the nation with a copy of Economics in One Lesson. But my real question, is how do i find how many libraries currently stock the book?

The number of central buildings is different from the number of public libraries because some public library systems have no central building and some have more than one.

- Special libraries include Corporate, Medical, Law, Religious, etc.
