In Which I Work With Limitted Success

[debka_notion]

It's very hard to use a book in the library that your professor has recommended to most of your class to use for their final papers when someone has Taken It Out. This is, I think, in poor taste, and is frustrating me. So I put in a request for the book- at which point, I hope to read the chapter I need, take my notes, and leave it at that- so it will be there for whomever else needs it. Am I expecting too much of humanity?

On the other hand, I'm doing reasonably with my memorization for Gemara, two papers are nearly done, and I have only one more class for Hebrew. I wanted to start my research for one of the two remaining papers- which is when I ran into this problem. As it is, I imagine that I'll need a day at a better Judaica library than the school one, it seems. Rather frustrating, but off I'll go- I guess on Thursday?

The Har Ha-tzofim library is really nice and easy to use, but really hard to get into.

On the other hand, the Giv'at Ram library is easy to get into, but really annoying to use, unless you just want to use stuff in the reading room. Although, I guess, the reading room is really really well stocked.
