Interlibrary Loan Amusement

[thewayne]

I've been filling requests but first emailing the library wanting my books to confirm that they still want them - that way we both don't waste money and time shipping books back and forth if they already filled the request and don't need my copy. I had to call an in-state library because I didn't have an email address for them. I ask for the ILL person. Eventually a woman answers and says the ILL person retired FIVE HOURS AGO!

I laughed out loud. She said she used to do ILL, and was able to help me. They want the book very much, and I'll be mailing it out to them tomorrow.

That's timing of the highest order.
