I had no idea you were so distinguished and it might indeed be nice to read some of your works.
There is nothing like this in the US. In fact during a recent exchange with you elsewhere I had no idea what to make of your mentioning fees paid for using library books and was baffled. and I was largely educated by British trained scholars, too, but they never mentioned anything of the kind, even in passing.
