I will forward it to GOVDOCS and Exlibris. Cheers. After I sent a message ot this list last Thursday about map theft Detective Bruce McDermott of the Great Falls, MT, Police Department contacted me. He asked me to pass on this news, related to the Brubaker investigation (ellipsis in the original): Old books (late 1700's- early 1900's) have turned up in our search (over 1000 books) attributed to College and Public Libraries.....most have the library identifiers and the libraries will be contacted in the days to come. I would like the (other) libraries to know of these book thefts as well because we are hoping that (like WWU did in the feb. 06 case) they filed police reports or might have seen an elderly suspect. We wouild love to know if there are police reports associated with book/map thefts.
