Hi Shelley!
Before the days of the internet, I had a library card and would check out music or audio books mostly, and an occasional print book. Are you saying that your library mails you the books? I thought the patrons had to go to the library to check them out and return them as I used to do, but, I must admit that I don't have an account on either of our local library's web sites, so I am completely out of touch on how the online world of library checking out and returning books works. It would be cool to get books from the library to either scan or have at hand while proofreading to spot check with the optacon when I come across a tough scano or to scan the pages that are missing.

Hi Monica,
Erie County Libraries has it. I requested it, but since the next delivery of books would be um on Christmas Day, it will be probably next week when I can get it.
Smile, but I requested it and there is one copy in at the moment so it will probably be sent to me.

Reading a book is like rewriting it for yourself. You bring to a novel, anything you read, all your experience of the world. You bring your history and you read it in your own terms. -Angela Carter, novelist and journalist (1940-1992)

Hi everyone. I'm looking for a book and am writing to ask if you'd check to see if your library has it. If you'll scan, I'll gladly proofread and strip headers. My book budget is depleted at the moment. (smile)
