•@silverwizard @hypolite In fairness, the British Library Reading Room used to be in the British Museum.
And they are both national British institutions. But I am pretty sure that the Library has acquired its collections with appropriate consideration, and nothing there is stolen, AFAIK.
However, I still get your point.
