[nesfa-reading-group] Davy by Pangborn NOT available in any Massachusetts library

[Gloria Lucia Albasi]

Hi Tracy,

As it happens “Davy” isn’t available in the NYPL circulating collection either. I might try the Interlibrary Loan program or skip January. 

Perhaps Dave or Chip’s suggestions will help. 

Good luck.
