I just contacted the library.
I asked them : can they confirm the book is physically there? What year did the library acquire the book? Was this a purchase or a donation, and if a donation, by whom?
Also I asked if it was possible for them to digitize a few pages, or at least take a picture of the cover.
As I wrote earlier, I do think it's possible that the person behind this actually wrote a short book about the Voynich manuscript.
"Giannhs Kenanidhs" claims he first received photocopies of a few pages of the Voynich just before Christmas 2001, sent to him by his friend's wife's uncle. Yes.
He says he then received his copy of the book on January 20th, 2002. And that in May 2002 he received a microfilm version of the Voynich from the same friend's wife's uncle connection.
This seems like a much more plausible timeframe for the book's publication than the reported 1990 date.
