I can't remember the number of times and ways I've tried to get them to re-acquire it. Maybe we should organize a good old sit-in? https://mtpfriends.bigcartel

I can't remember the number of times and ways I've tried to get them to re-acquire it. Maybe we should organize a good old sit-in? https://mtpfriends.bigcartel.com/product/what-s-more-punk-adult-t-shirt https://mtpfriends.bigcartel.com/product/what-s-more-punk-ad... Some universities have it, but the only copy in CA public libraries seems to be at the Sharp Park branch in Pacifica (which I believe was acquired in the last couple of years - good on them!). Berkeley public library has copies of the JS edition for what that's worth..

I would prefer my library not buy SICP (at least the Scheme edition) since it's available for free online. https://mitp-content-server.mit.edu/books/content/sectbyfn/books_pres_0/6515/sicp.zip/full-text/book/book.html https://mitp-content-server.mit.edu/books/content/sectbyfn/b...

  Yes. It's important to leave room on the shelf for yet another copy of the next edition of Computers for Seniors for Dummies: https://linkencore.iii.com/iii/encore/record/C__Rb51571246__Sfor%20seniors%20for%20dummies__P0 https://linkencore.iii.com/iii/encore/record/C__Rb51571246__... btw, Andres Raba brought us the preferred online edition of SICP: https://sarabander.github.io/sicp/ https://sarabander.github.io/sicp/ Also, I'd like to note that in my experience no public library can provision online-only books. I've been unable to get any to acquire Mastering Emacs for example. https://www.masteringemacs.org/ https://www.masteringemacs.org/
