thanks for helping in advance.

Answer 1

Just bind a property to SelectedItem:

<ListBox 
  ItemsSource="{Binding Books}" 
  SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedBook}"/>

And in the ViewModel

public class Library : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
  public ObservableCollection<Book> Books {get;private set;}
  public Book SelectedBook {get;set;}
}
