When you get to the very last page of the 1,000k+ comic compendium you are reading and find this. Really!? Yes, you can lift it up, but it is glued directly over the dialogue in these panels. Luckily, I had the duplicate compendium ILL sent me that has no due date sheet in it at all. Ha!! 😂 #comics #comicbooks #interlibraryloanproblems

charl08 My library does this with the 'date bought' sticker. Drives me nuts. 8y

Remember when Interlibrary loan told me they couldn't get compendium 2 & 3, but then sent me compendium 2 instead of 1? This week they ended up sending me two compendium 1s! 😂 #interlibraryloanproblems

So I ordered some "light" reading for the holiday. I watched a little of the show a while back, but really wanted to read it instead for now. I ordered compendiums (aka bricks) #1-3 from Interlibrary loan. They told me #2 & 3 were unavailable, but I got a notice they were sending me #1, so I was cool with that. I went to pick it up, and it was #2! And it is due in 2 weeks instead of the usual 6. Bummer. #interlibraryloanproblems #comics #comicbook

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Two without 1! What? See if your library participates with Hoopla at all, if it does you can borrow the individual issues (up to 10 borrows a month) and read them on your phone or tablet. That's how I read the last Compendium #3, because I just couldn't handle carrying around another brick. 8y
Ellsbeth @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I admit I'm tired of carrying around these bricks! But the compendiums are better than trying to get all the individual physical volumes from ILL. Hoopla looks awesome. Unfortunately, my state doesn't like funding libraries. The city council tried to cut the library budget by 50% last year until the community freaked out on them. However, I will ask them about this. It looks like a cool service. Thanks! 8y
