Captain ILL is a world-class superhero who occasionally takes time away from booting evil to help out at the interlibrary loan desk.

Interlibrary Loan of the day
Why can't I go? Answers and Relief For Women With Constipation is another title that, I believe, speaks for itself. It was requested by: Gertrude Andrews of Mountlake Terrace, Washington.
If gertrude ill's any books about unclogging toilets, let me know. I don't want to scare you but divulging secret ill requests, is kinda like kryptonite....
Hilarious — but I'm concerned — is it fair to publish patron names together with what they requested, in a public blog? If I were Gertrude Andrews (or the ILL staff of her local library) I'd be more than "pissed off" about this!
In response to a later posted request for Gertrude's address, I think she lives at 242 Gullible Lane, Mountlake Terrace, WA. Although her primary residence would be somewhere in the dark recesses of our beloved captain's imagination.

Yikes.
What about the follow-up to that title? J and G's Mom put a bug in my ear that it's "Why do I go so much?"
