Libraries pay for books through tax money provided by the city. Money is also collected through movie rentals and fines.

I think that it depends on the library, usually. I believe that at most free libraries, the cost can range from $10-$20. Ask your local librarian if you are not sure.

You go to the library, tell them you lost the book, ask how much money it will cost to replace, and give them the money.

The price of a library book depends on the book itself; it is impossible to give a general value for one.

Why do you pay for books?

Authors do the work of writing books, editors do the work of editing them, printers do the work of printing them unless the books are ebooks, publishers go to the expense of advertising books, and everybody has to be paid for their work. People do not do these things for free. Hence, the consumer, who wants to read a book, has to pay for it. Or borrow it from the library. (Libraries also pay for the books that they have in their collections.)
