 To Dayton, Ohio area library media specialists:  Help!
 Our ELA teachers have booked author Isabelle Carmody to speak at our middle
school on Feb. 22nd.  She is the author of a book called _The Gathering_.  We do
not have this book in our collection and I have been unable to get a book
anywhere.  (Meaning bookstores or public libraries.)  I can't believe we are
having an author whose work we have never read and our students have never heard
of.  Anyway, if you have this book in your collection, could I please borrow it?
 I will drive anywhere to pick it up or reimburse you if you want to mail it.  I
may sound panic stricken -- well I am!  Many of you know me through OELMA and
know that I am trustworthy. :)  If you don't know me, please take my word that I
would treat your copy lovingly and return it promptly.  Thank you for any help
you can provide.
