Pedro's Gravatar If I don't live in the St. Paul area, how can I get access to the neat new books in your library?

Allen's Gravatar It's a good question, Pedro, though not one with an easy answer. Your best option is to check with a local library in your area, either a public library or a library affiliated with a university or academic institution. If a title is not available at a library in your area, you may be able to request that it be sent to you via an interlibrary loan. My recommendation is to do exactly what you've just done --- ask a librarian.
