Try returning a cheap book from the public library to your campus library the morning it's due. Find out how many days it takes to get checked in at the public library.<BR/><BR/>See, what happens in a case like that is that the campus library will typically send the books to the public library, usually on a courier van that makes regular trips to the public and academic libraries for interlibrary loans. So why drive to the public library if you're going to be on campus anyway?Ben Ostrowskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02819072560090197307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8266975.post-29459272932129973802008-07-17T14:43:00.000-06:002008-07-17T14:43:00.000-06:00You are amazing.

It's sometimes hard to understand how one thing affects something so insignificant and distant seeming. Maybe the sky really is falling!?JoAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12538979556081549617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8266975.post-35176672538637448642008-07-17T09:32:00.000-06:002008-07-17T09:32:00.000-06:00Well, who'da thunk it?????Even the libraries, eh? ...Well, who'da thunk it?????<BR/>Even the libraries, eh? I suppose even they will have to raise the 'price' on their fees.<BR/>I've seen a lot of little scooters and bikes this summer. Maybe that's the trend of the future, although I can't imagine such a thing in Atlanta.mudderbearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04537045078065798116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8266975.post-41731685860636562072008-07-16T15:57:00.000-06:002008-07-16T15:57:00.000-06:00I could never do that.

Our local library gives you a week before they officially charge you late fees, but even if it is inconvenient I still have to return it on the day it is due.Mac Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10299099443253837423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8266975.post-54837041438519259012008-07-16T14:48:00.000-06:002008-07-16T14:48:00.000-06:00This is an awesome post.
