For those of you who are having trouble getting copies, ask your library to do an interlibrary loan. If it's from within your state it might be free but it only costs $13.70 (when I last did the job LOL) to source a copy from any library in Australia!! I've checked the national catalogue and dozens of libraries have it so shouldn't be too hard to get a copy that way.
Thanks Marydean, I noticed our library does inter-library loans but doesn't explain how, and then of course I wondered how you know if another library has the book for loan. There is another book I am trying to source too. So what is the national catalogue and how do you check it?
The national catalogue is called Trove Australia. When you search on the site, it will spit out a few hits, click the title you want and then there's a box that says "available from" and shows the different libraries where it is. Usually though you shouldn't need to do it, your library's website should have a request a book option somewhere or if not you should be able to email your request through.
