follow-up to the last post: if you are looking for a specific book and are in the united states, check worldcat. It has access to the catalogues of every public, university, and special library that belongs to OCLC (which is just about everyone), and will tell you where you can find the book (this includes digitally, such as through hathitrust and internet archive). And even if the thing you're looking for is far away, being a member of OCLC means they probably participate in inter-library loans, so you can request the book through your local library.
please use worldcat. it's wonderful. tell everyone you know
#there are scattered international libraries that show up but it's not as universal a thing as it is here#other cool things you can find on worldcat:#unpublished papers theses etc#artist files#pamplets#individual magazine issues#trade catalogues#auction catalogues!#as long as someone has catalogued them they'll be there#and you might not be able to request to have them sent to you#but if you reach out and ask you might find a kindly librarian willing to scan it for you :)#realized while writing this that i have no idea what oclc stands for and tried to find out#they don't even have it on the website lol#aha!
