9/13: I love libraries

I'm doing an article on the history of Golden Age science fiction writers. Lots of source material in the books of Sam Moskowitz...but I didn't really want to spend tons of money to buy his books from www.abe.com

So I ordered them through Interlibrary Loan, not really expecting that any library here on the East Coast of the USA would have them...but lo and behold one did! So I'll be going to my local library at 3 pm today to pick them up. (3 pm being the time when the courier van arrives, apparently).

I've read Asimov's writings on 'First Fandom', and I've got the book The Futurians by Damon Knight, but these will be the first by Moskowitz I've seen.
