If the tape is already labeled the below command will NOT overwrite it
and thus the data and the label will remain intact and all that will
have been acomplished is a checkin=private.

That is not true, I had to relabel a tape this morning.

What you do is...

check the questionable tape out and then run the following command

Label libv lto_lib search=bulk labels=bar checkin=private overwrite=no

This will re-label the tape and keep the data on it so it is marked as
private
