In this case, you can actually track where the books have been by the dates on the flyleaf - they have a grid for all the branches and dates get written in when books get to a new one. They spend about 6 months in each library, roughly.
Alas, there doesn't seem to be a link between the books in a set when they do move on so you get the second or third book turning up somewhere apparently at random. If it wasn't for that I'd subscribe to your bosses' theory, because this way of doing things is certainly a system I've never seen before.
Yeah, I liked 'Tailchaser's Song' as well, and the trilogy-that-became-a-foursome of 'Memory, Sorrow and Thorn' too. ;)
