Where to buy a book cover?

I borrowed a Harry Potter book from the library and unfortunately the cover is damaged and I want to replace it before I return it. By cover I mean them PVC slip over cover things. The size is width- 129 mm and Height is 198 mm and Pagination 608.

So could someone please tell me where I can purchase a cover that will fit this. Like Whsmith or some store? Please don't suggest online stores like ebay because I am only able to purchase in person.

Update:

Yes but I'm too embarrassed to take it back in this state, please where can I buy a suitable cover?

Update 2:

cathrl 69- Atleast I care. Atleast I bothered, some ppl might have sneaked it back in or something.

    It is nothing to be embarassed about. Things happen. As long as you take it up to your librarian and admit what happened they will either fix it or charge you. Usually they can fix it. They have all kinds of things to fix them. I am 100% positive they will not think you purposely damaged the cover. I had pulled a book out from its spine before and they fixed it right away. Dont worry about it.

    Just take it back and say "sorry, I damaged the cover, can you replace it?" Libraries buy them by the boxful.

    "Yes but I'm too embarrassed to take it back in this state"

    Then I suggest you try acting your age. I'd expect a three year old to manage that. If not, I'm sure your mummy can ask for you.

    The library would probably rather replace it with one that meets their specifications. So just return the book and if they want you to pay for a new cover they'll tell you how much it costs. They may just consider this normal wear and tear, though, and not charge at all.
