[LM_NET] Library of Congress suplus

[LIZANELL BOMAN <lizanellb@MSN.COM>]

Anyone every use the Library of Congress surplus books offer?  For what I can tell 
on their website 
(http://www.loc.gov/acq/surplus.html<http://www.loc.gov/acq/surplus.html>)  you can 
never tell what will be there and you have to come in person to the Washington LOC 
office that handles their surplus books.  I was just pondering it because I know 
some people who go back to D.C. every year with the Close Up program and I wondered 
if it was worth the effort to see if one of them would take an extra suitcase and 
bring back things for my VERY new, budget-less library.  It appears from the 
website that the materials are free, but you have to arrange to pick them up and 
remove them yourself.

Anyway,  if anyone has had experience with this, I'd love to hear about it!
