We would like to purchase a copy of the reference set "Lexicon iconographicum mythologiae classicae (LIMC)." (See WorldCat record forwarded below.) Our reference collections librarian approved the purpose and placed a rush order in August for a copy through GOBI for $1800. They were unable to supply, the order was cancelled, and no one noticed. I asked her about it today and she said they identified a set from Amazon for $6600 which is beyond our budget. However, the faculty member who requested it was told we were getting it and has planned an assignment for her class to do, and I really don't want to have to tell her she's out of luck now.
There is another one listed on Amazon for $50, but I suspect it's just one volume. We're checking into it. I've asked Worldwide Books, but our acquisitions librarian says it isn't in their catalog. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Amy
