I was told by a member of this mailing list that "even a small public 
library" would be able to obtain the book for me. I was was somewhat 
incredulous about this, but I did attempt the experiment. I have made 
rather long library trips in the past and said so in my earlier posting 
on this subject. The reason I wanted to find out where the holding 
locations are located is so that I can contemplate another library 
trip.
