    This is a great resource. Do you happen to know if these volumes could be borrowed through inter-library loan?

  • Brett Schulte April 2, 2021, 3:43 pm

    Lisa,

    Yes they are! I am not positive about ILL, but if you go to the WorldCat site they usually list all of the libraries near you which contain copies. I have more around me than I would have thought.
