Well, that is what is available here. I don't know how you determined that only 5 libraries are in the loan system but I will take your word for it. Are you confusing the 5 options for picking up the book, all part of the Sumter county library system with what libraries are sharing? This is Florida, you came from Massachusetts. Priorities are different here. Our library system has been privatized and is run by a for profit corporation. I hope you got on the waiting list for the book you wanted.
