It's not a problem to stick my head in at TRL. The "Hellements of Hickonomics" is only 84 pages and if there isn't a problem setting up would only take about half an hour. I get the table of contents of the other books.
Photographing a 300 page book at home isn't much of an effort, I have fairly efficient copy setup. Trying to do the same in the library with small portable equipment and trying not to irritate others is a different question. But I have done it before (all the Thorne Smith books!) and there are others I still plan to do.
The copy of the "Collected Poems of Wilfred Owen" from the Indian Library is missing pages 78 and 79. TRL has a copy of the same edition. One of the missing poems is "The Fates" and I have other copies. The other poem is just called "Sonnet" and I have no idea which one it is. The problem with all these online sites is the very uneven quality of the scans. Many of them a very slipshod with missing pages or pages that are out of focus or otherwise unintelligible. Many of the scans of Thurber and Parkinson at the Internet Archive are useless.
