Last Friday I was doing my usual 'check out the new books the library has bought'. Found a few that sounded interesting, and reserved them. Looked at my card today, and one book has totally disappeared. A non-clickable link on my reservations list, not showing how many people have reserved it, and if I search under author and/or title, it isn't showing up it the catalogue. So, will this book ever turn up? Have they lost it before it even hit the shelves? Is it a coding error and all is fine and I'll get the email tomorrow to pick it up? Will I have to wait til my friendly librarian is on duty to ask what is going on? So many questions for what is essentially a light read.  |

Do the LP mods have access to your library? Is it owned by the BBC?

Maybe they didn't get the book.

According to the online update, the non existent book is on the reserve shelf at my local library waiting for me to pick it up.
Will it trigger a wormhole if I borrow a book that doesn't exist?

This gets more mysterious. Went to the library today, it was temporarily closed for repairs - there had been no previous notice of this. Two blokes in business attire were loitering outside. I think they were spies checking out the wormhole. ;-) |

Shush Q!
I picked the book up today, the world didn't end and the closure was for the usual flooding/roof leaking issue after the torrential rain on Monday. (Obviously all the other 'repairs' haven't really worked)
The book still doesn't exist in the catalogue, but I was able to check it out and it does show up on my card (worse luck!!)

It's a special secret book that only YOU are allowed to read.
