[Anchasl-l] Help on locating lost volume from collection

[Steve Owen]

I don't know, but you might try reasoning with the publisher.  Give him a short list of the (no doubt) many items your library has ordered from that well-known publisher in the past few years.  Explain that your hospital is located right in the fastest-growth metropolitan area in the Southeast.  Assure him that you are confident there is a way to settle this issue, to everyone's mutual benefit.  Help the publisher see his own best interests may indeed lie in keeping a faithful customer satisfied.
 
 
Sincerely,
 
 
 
Steve Owen
Librarian

*	Hello Everyone, 

*	I am in desperate need.  Vol. 2 of Bockus Gastroenterology, 5th ed. 1995, 072163723x. has been taken from our shelves.  We have exalted all avenues to retrieve it.  I have gone to the publisher, search the web and spoke with some colleagues from Duke Medical Center Library.  Does anyone know if there is a place where you can buy a slightly used copy,  or prehaps someone has an extra copy that they are willing to donate to a needy collection?  The publisher was not willing to sell one volume.  There are no plans at this time to update.  Thanks for your help. 

*
