Can you buy published books?

Here I was reading this and didn't realize it was an old thread.. I always do 2 copies of the books my Sims write in case they lose one somewhere.. My thing is.. I wished you could re-order in case they lose completely and the other thing is, Since our Libraries now have a librarian.. would it be so cool if they made a librarian desk and you could submit your books to the Librarian to put in the shelves.. They could easily update those desks from the Police Station and the Medical to have functions within each of the venues to have tasks to do and make money selling drinks to the bar or even paintings to the museum..
