If you’ve ordered it ILL, you’ve probably already found this out, but in case not… According to OCLC Worldcat (based on an ISBN search), only 9 (member) libraries in the world own this: Harvard and McMaster in North America; National Library/U of Strasbourg Library and Otto Harrassowitz in Europe; Aichi Arts Center – Aichi Prefectural Library, Nihon U – Col of Int Relations, Tama Art U Library, Aomori Pub U, and Kokugakuin U Library in Asia. Good thing you found another source, as ILL might be a long wait, depending on where you are.

Thanks also Jeremy. I’ve ordered it on ILL anyway, so I’ll probably get it in a week or so. I’ve also discovered another source for the same information.

You’re welcome, Chris. I’ve tried the LoC number, Jeremy, and came up with nothing, as well.

hx276.m27684 is the loc number as best as i can make it out from my reference miner query to loc. have you tried asking your topic librarian in your local library. when i call my social science librarian, he can sometimes get me the document i need, if i know what it is the same day. this is because he is on a list with other social science librarians and they help each other with things like this.

I’m afraid I don’t have a LoC number. Many thanks for looking Barry.

Chris, I’ve looked through the catalog of the University of Michigan system, and nothing came up. By any chance, do you have a (US) Library of Congress number? The U/M catalog doesn’t mention ISBN’s. Thanks,
