It's also annoying when they have the earlier books and don't have the later ones or vice versa.Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-88014502465937224402009-03-09T15:05:00.000-03:002009-03-09T15:05:00.000-03:00Oh that's nothing!

Sometimes they don't even get the later releases either! Drives me bonkers! I can't complain too much since they do have a pretty good selection regardless.Ladytink_534https://www.blogger.com/profile/14317480621483829078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-8103238106234921742009-03-09T12:55:00.000-03:002009-03-09T12:55:00.000-03:00Jen: Yeah, I will just have to cross my fingers i...Jen: Yeah, I will just have to cross my fingers it appears!

Maybe because I request several books at a time, and they come from libraries all over the state. It is as if they wait to get them all together before sending them.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I hope you get Vol. 2 and understand your frustration!jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-69438578144655275852009-03-08T12:19:00.000-03:002009-03-08T12:19:00.000-03:00Deslily: Yes, that annoys me about bookstores, to...Deslily: Yes, that annoys me about bookstores, too!<BR/><BR/>Marg: Yeah, I don't know how often it happens at this library. I just noticed it for this series at the moment.<BR/><BR/>Nymeth: That's probably what happened. Someone probably didn't return it for whatever reason.Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-17964799653084006972009-03-08T08:53:00.000-03:002009-03-08T08:53:00.000-03:00Gah, that is frustrating :/ I wonder if they used ...Gah, that is frustrating :/ I wonder if they used to have volume 2 but it got lost or something.Ana S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16092495983972185943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-22737746142364290912009-03-08T07:10:00.000-03:002009-03-08T07:10:00.000-03:00I hate it when that happens.

You'd think they would try to have the whole set, even if it is spread across a couple libraries.Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19926025.post-59795110371491683272009-03-07T20:55:00.000-04:002009-03-07T20:55:00.000-04:00I know how you feel.

Here in Rhode Island, I can ask for books from any other library in the state, and they arrive at my branch in two or three days...Charlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835101886202235868noreply@blogger.com
