As someone who works in a library and has to go through every single book that comes in during my shift, and unfold Every. Single. Dog-ear. No. I can’t say that I do. I have seen books come in where half of the pages were dog-eared. It’s not a good indicator of the books contents. Only an indicator of the last person to read it. Not to mention dog-ears permanently damage the book. They can never be fixed and become prone to tearing.
