Not always. I once bought _Tatting with Visual Patterns_ for my library so that *they* could store it. And then I moved. On the other hand, I could still get it by ILL. I can't say the same for The Handbook of the Nutritional Content of Foods, which used to sit on my desk for frequent reference. Time to go through the boxes we pushed up into the attic to make a path to walk through the garage . . . Not to mention that ILL is a good way to examine a book before sending for it by mail order. -- Joy Beeson [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.earthlink.net/~joybeeson/ http://home.earthlink.net/~beeson_n3f/ http://home.earthlink.net/~beeson_n3f/WEB/WEB.HTM west of Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A. where there is a fresh coat of snow, but it's not very cold.
