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

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.)

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. :-) <snipped> Suzanne said: 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!
