Book finder/university library researcher of a rare book (USA based)
£10-50 GBP
Paid on delivery
Hello,
I have been trying to find a book titled: "Abdou N'jie : the oral history of a warrior" by Alex Trilling. It is a 26 page book but rather important to me. I've been trying to locate this book for almost 20 years but had no luck as it is now rare and difficult to find eventhough it was published in the 1980s. I am based in London UK, and interestingly enough, the British Library which tends to hold all books ever published, for some reason, does not hold a copy of this book. No UK based libary or educational institution holds a copy of this book. The book is only available in the USA. Therefore, the freelancer who will take on this job should be based in the USA with access to the Library of Congress and/or one of the following US university libraries (see below) which holds a copy or digital version of the book. The freelancer should be able to provide me a PDF version of the full book or clear and readable photos. Unfortunately, this job is discriminatory based on residency of the freelancer (USA) and access to certain univeristy libraries. If you are not based in the USA but have access to these institutions (e.g. an allumni with access) then you are also welcome to bid. I would be willing to pay more (within reason) for anyone that has or can obtain a physical copy of the book itself in any edition.
The universities/libraries which holds a copy include:
HathiTrust Digital Library ;
Boston University Libraries Mugar, Memorial Library ;
Harvard University, Harvard Library ;
Columbia University in the City of New York, Columbia University Libraries ;
Smithsonian Institution Libraries, Smithsonian Libraries ;
Cornell University Library ;
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. University Libraries, UNC University Libraries ;
University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign ;
University of Florida ;
UC Berkeley Libraries ;
Indiana University ;
Northwestern University ;
University of California, NRLF Northern Regional Library Facility ;
University of California, Los Angeles
