Yes. One of my local libraries had PotD and LoCB, but did not have SL yet even though it had been out for over a month. I requested that since they had the first two they buy the third, and they did. So we have a full set of VoA hardbacks.

I guess I'm lucky (well, and I live in a college town). The big library in the area has all of the Vladiad, Brokedown, Cowboy Feng's, and all 5 Paarfi books. I don't think I would have been able to find Brokedown or Feng's if the library didn't have them. I guess I should ask them to get a new copy of Reign in Hell, since it's back in print...
