I worked for a large, well-funded library system. If you belong to the library, you can request purchase of your book directly, in person or on the internet site. The Librarian also should be happy to request purchase. Our library makes it a point to purchase books written by local authors.
As to the general question, I leave it up to others. I know that our acquisitions department does not respond to direct solicitation, nor do they even like donations of books (with, again, the possible exception of local authors, especially professors who want to donate a textbook they've written). We deal through Baker & Taylor---might want to check out their policies.

depends what library but most do sell books. Most libraries have an ongoing process of "weeding" by which they remove books that no longer fit their needs, in order to make space for new materials. These are often sold to the public. Also, libraries often receive donations that contain books they do not need, or already have; by agreement with the donor, they will sell those as well.
