Amy,
We just put big neon stickers with "DO NOT REMOVE, PROPERTY OF:" On the covers. Makes them less appealing to take, easier to spot if they begin to walk and much friendlier to use than trying to chain them down to a tether point.
Good Luck!

Subject: chaining books
At work we're thinking about putting out some kids books on a bookshelf in
our kids' hands-on room (the Quest Gallery). We want to prevent the books
from leaving with people, so I obviously thought of chaining them to the
shelves, a la the medieval library. I'd like to hear suggestions from folks
about how to do this. I'm guessing that the most basic method will be to
punch or drill a hole through the boards and block of the book -- not in
the spine -- and put a big ring in there. Are there better methods?
