The Beyerdynamic SX10s are meant to be one of the best ones for jogging.

Although there are the new Sennheiser PMX70s as well:

Though they lack a bit of top-end and cost nearly double the price of the Beyerdynamic's - I'd suggest trying them both before buying.

IMO PX100 is the best out of your bunch.

You might consider better alternatives to an iPod (better sound, no DRM troubles, etc.).

Akg k26p is very muffled, you miss the highs. But they are a great portable solution, no sound leak and fat bass. They will definately stay on your head while running.

You can't use Px100 or Porta Pro in the library. No chance, sound leakage is too heavy.

Yes.

In a library setting, IMO, any sound leakage is too much.
