Hi Deb,

We do not circulate these, but I believe the community college library in town has done so for a number of years.  You might consider reaching out to Mariel  Carter at the Bay College in Escanaba.  


Good luck!

Hello all,

Do any of your libraries circulate these? And if so, do you require a waiver to be signed beforehand, due to possible adverse side effects for folks who are bipolar (can potentially cause lack of sleep, thus triggering a manic episode) or who suffer from eye problems such as glaucoma, etc?

And if you do utilize a waiver, would you be willing to advise on content?

We have bought one, and would like to circulate it, and are doing our 'due diligence' on the matter.

Thank you in advance for your time! (And apologies if we've already discussed this!)
