Besides, I took the ones in the worst condition, the ones where the covers were about to fall off (I had to tape one back together), so they probably would have trashed them by the end of the year anyways.

So wait until they become discards and then buy them? Or you could ask the librarian if it's possible to buy them when they fall apart? IDK it's just a dick move to steal shit from a library. Even worse is when people tear pages out of artbooks, like this one Francesca Woodman book I used to check out and enjoy from the Nashville Public Library that has since been damaged and is missing pages (that book is also out of print and worth something like three hundred dollars now)

Horror story time!

We once had a guy steal some British Library Loans. They were out of print and quite valuable, and the guy just totally refused to return them. Our head of service ended up getting involved and went to the guy's house to ask for them back, and the guy claimed he didn't have them. He then refused to pay the fine, which was HUNDREDS of pounds, and the council had to pay it (we're a public library). We banned him for three years but now he's back - suffice it to say, he is banned from borrowing anything that isn't in County stock.

Wow! Francesca Woodman's photos look amazing! Iit saddens me that she suicided at such a young age. :(

FYI, there have been two recent books about her work published. One in 2006 and another in 2011. Both can be found on Amazon if you search for "Francesca Woodman." I'm going to be getting a copy of one of these because her photos look so interesting and I'd never heard of her before! Thanks!

First of all, I'm happy that you were able to discover her work! Secondly, I feel really silly for not looking for other publications of her work. I had been so hung up on that one particular book and never bothered to look, so thanks for the heads up.

It saddens me that she suicided at such a young age. :(

I agree, it truly is sad when someone so young and talented takes their own life. Throughout my life I've found that a lot of my favorite musicians, actors, artists, what have you fallen into this pattern. I've always been fascinated by the link between mental illness and talent and in particular, depression or bipolar disorder and talent (apparently some researchers have found that there is a clear link)

There seems to be a huge surge of interest in Francesca Woodman. There was a PBS special that aired back in December -- a documentary called "The Woodmans." There's a few clips on the PBS web site.

There's MORE than just two books on Francesca coming out. Seems like there's going to be two big exhibitions of her work in 2012 on the east and west coasts (one show at NYC's Guggenheim). Awesome, but still sad that she's not around to enjoy her fame.
