40. 1. Be nice to Inter Library Loan Department. Cheaper than you driving or flying to somewhere else. 2. Remember bribery in small doses works. Bribes and compliments can be interchangeable! 3. Texas universities must share with you for free. Always use them first. 4. Genealogical materials are rarely loaned by public libraries, but universities usually will. 5. Microfilm (not fiche or microcard) is usually only loaned by universities, almost never by public libraries. 6. Always inquire about buying copies of fiche (usually 25¢ or 50¢ per sheet of fiche).

41. 7. Books (and other stuff) made before 1900 generally do not get loaned (Hint: they may be on microfilm!). 8. Library of Congress may loan if they are only source and they have two copies and you send a groveling and pleading e-mail. They will make copies (reasonably priced) or microfilm (very expensive). 9. If book is simply unavailable for loan, inquire of stingy library to check index or photocopy names in index of interest. Then order pages from index. Good to have unlimited long distance phone plan.
