Those listed as in the Green there is an excellent chance to get on an interlibrary loan.  In yellow there is still a chance of getting.  In there red, there is a chance of receiving one on request, but the odds are much longer.  Thus, there are about 46 books with little hope of receiving.  The other 27 there is some chance, although because of the age of some of these, I have only been able to access about 15 of them so far.
