I'm so disappointed in my experience at the Carnegie Library! :( I recently became a member because I enjoy utilizing the library resources and since I graduated from Pitt I needed a new library to go to.
I've been trying to get a copy of 100 years of solitude for the past two weeks for my vacation this Saturday. The librarian put me on a list so that I would get the next available copy shipped to the downtown location. This morning I received an email saying my book had arrived and was ready for pick up! I got to the library as soon as it opened at 8:30 and boy was I shocked at what was on hold for me. Not 100 years of solitude but a book about the book. I was so disappointed because this is the only free time I have to read for leisure! The librarian on duty told me that this happens ALL the time. Well, I'm disappointed and this shouldn't happen at all, especially when you give the title and the author!
