Q. What if the book I want is already checked out?

If a book you wanted is already checked out, you have several options.

1) You can put a hold/recall on our copy, and hope the person who has it returns it quickly

2) You can request a copy from another library via interlibrary loan

3) if you need a book about your topic, but not that book in particular, you can choose a different one

Sometimes doing all three is the best idea!
