Maybe contact him and borrow it for a week or so.

Yeah, but professors get to keep books 'til the end of the academic  
year.  I'll have to wait 'til mid-May.  The "Recall" feature is for  
items that someone reallyreallyreally needs for research; I don't  
apply it lightly and I already hit this professor once last semester  
for something I WANTED.  (Not that he knows who requested it, because  
the library privacy laws work both ways.)

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 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!  (Just call me Conan the Librarian.)
