    “The section came together in 2007 with help from a $3,000 federal grant that the Oak Park Library Board of Trustees opted to apply for the year before, after noting local demand for such specialty material.”

    Local demand? Is there something in the water in Oak Park?

    I just checked, and my local library doesn’t have either MHB or SNTMIM. (The county library system does, but we don’t.)

    Now I’m thinking about sending the librarian an email and see if they’d like me to donate them. Is it available in hardcover, Helen, or only in paperback?

    They both come only in softcover, Trish. Thanks for asking.
