Hence it did not occur to me to claim novelty when using these data to compare public library holdings of certain series books (Bad Books in Series: Nancy Drew in the Public Library, The Lion and the Unicorn 18 [1994]:92-102), nor again in the paper, Bibliographic Mystery: Missing Books; Missing Author, in Rediscovering Nancy (Univ. of Iowa Pr., 1995). cache/crl-14989.pdf txt/crl-14989.txt
