SFPL doesn't have even one copy of SICP. And I can't request a copy because it's too old. Do you believe that no one in San Francisco ever wanted to read SICP

SFPL doesn't have even one copy of SICP.
And I can't request a copy because it's too old.
Do you believe that no one in San Francisco ever wanted to read SICP?
- toast0 6mo agoI can believe that nobody was checking it out and it got weeded. But you should be able to get it through interlibrary loan. https://sfpl.libanswers.com/faq/97320 https://sfpl.libanswers.com/faq/97320 Worldcat says it's at 1483 libraries: https://search.worldcat.org/title/Structure-and-interpretation-of-computer-programs/oclc/1312163554 https://search.worldcat.org/title/Structure-and-interpretati... (although some of them may not participate in ILL, and some may only have eBooks that you probably can't borrow unless you have an appropriate account) I'm sure SFPL does tracking on ILL requests and if something comes up more than once or twice in a reasonable period and it's available for purchase, a copy will be purchased to add to the collection.
- rahimnathwani 6mo agoOK I just submitted two ILL requests (for two different books).
