Buy not borrow: In February, we began to purchase books requested on Interlibrary Loan when they can be acquired quickly, cost less than $100, are not available in Mobius or GWLA (another library consortium we use a lot), etc. These are paid for from a special fund. Buying the book may cost less than locating and borrowing a copy. You may sometimes see odd titles in our new books list and wonder why they were purchased; often this will be the explanation.
Requests: I welcome your requests for book and journal purchases. You may email Ruth directly or use the web forms: Recommend a book for purchase or Recommend a journal purchase or cancellation. Thank you!
