If you put a hold on it, he can't renew it, right? So, he'll have to return it or face HUGE late fees. If your library doesn't charge late fees, drop him a note saying they do now, it's a new policy, to try and encourage him to return it. :-)

I've also had wonderful dealings and gotten great books at prices that I could never have afforded otherwise. Suzanne responds: LOL. If they can get the book in time to bring some copies to Kalamazoo, I'll happily join you in the name-calling, no matter the price. (Yeah, I know it's not "medieval" but what the heck -- last year a couple of the booksellers were pushing the Tudor Tailor book.) I love getting my weekly e-mails from David Brown Book Company. I even persuaded my library to buy the Luttrell Psalter!! I have been waiting more or less patiently while it sits in "In Process" limbo... and then yesterday when I went to put a hold on it so that I can be the first one to drag it home, I discovered that a blankity-blank history professor emeritus had beaten me to it. Grrrr. If it weren't for library privacy laws, I would march over to his office and demand to know why he's always after MY books... but I'm not allowed to say that I know patron information like that. So I'll have to be quiet and wait 'til the semester ends and he's forced to return everything -- or until I just can't take it any more and Recall the book!
