Hey Grandma,Those books you cannot get or ones your library does not have might be available from someone on list who cannot scan or has not thought to so toss out the names and see if someone [s] catch them. I just sent off 10 books to willing scanners and will try to validate some but it I take to long I will up load or tell the scanner to upload so someone else can validate them. As for that, I am looking for any and all Faulkner [I prefer Random House editions but will take what I can get] which are not already in the Bookshare collection or which ones are less than excellent. I will gladly return any loaned volumes but I already have the books so won't need them to validate. My copies are not good for scanning as they are annoted in multiple colors as well as highlighters and even, in some books, on the blank pages.
Once I validate the books I have now on loan I will happily donate the books for trade to people who can aquire good books that way.Amy

Jamie, I guess I didn't make myself clear. The book is in the reference section and doesn't circulate. It strikes me as a little strange, especially in a city as large as Los Angeles. It's nice that old books are preserved, but not many people can go down to the central library and read them. In addition to the Swann book, there have been some fiction books that I would dearly have loved to obtain, but the only copy available at any of my three lbrary systems was in reference. In San Diego Public Library system has books in storage, but I get the feeling that one can request them, although I've never tried.
