Two brothers have been arrested in the theft of several books of local significance from the Reading Public Library's main branch in center city.
Robert Bierman, 38, and Erick Bierman, 35, were apprehended Monday afternoon at their home in the 1100 block of North Sixth Street in Reading, police said.
The men were identified on the library's surveillance video, which aired on 69 News on both Sunday and Monday.
They walked out of the library last Wednesday with 11 limited-edition books of George Meiser IX's 22-volume series, said police, adding that the books have not been recovered.
The books have been known to sell for hundreds of dollars each on Internet auction sites like eBay.
The men were charged with 11 counts of library theft, receiving stolen property, institutional vandalism and related offenses.
