We’re desperately seeking a copy of BE NOT CONTENT: A Subterranean Journal by William J. Craddock, published in 1970 by Doubleday. It is long out of print and original copies are going for $300-$400, which is well beyond our price range. We just want to read the darn thing. If you can help, please let us know via Comments or email. Thank you.
For the curious: here’s Rudy Rucker writing on Craddock.
if you’re ever in manhattan you can read it at the library on 42nd st & 5th
Looks like you can find it in a lot of libraries all over the country. http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/654673115 I bet you can even order it to your local library. Doesn’t seem to be especially rare, though valuable.
Hmm, it’s not anywhere near our 92252 zip code.
It’s in 219 libraries that are accessible through interlibrary loan to me in Oregon, and about 16 of those are in California. Shouldn’t be too much trouble. Have you tried WorldCat through your local library?
David — I believe they (San Bernardino County Library) only do loans between branches within their system, and it is not in any of their branches.
Alexander Street has it online. I can get to it via my school’s library, but can’t print it out (it is posted in page-by-page images). I’d give you my login, but you could divert my paycheck to the Arthur fund. If you know anyone in school, check with ’em.
John – Thanks. We’ll see if we know anyone in a school or at a library that can help out in some way.
