We have probably had 200 phone calls just in the last couple of days from people looking for them. Asking for 20 or 50. No matter how many NASA glasses anyone has it is very clear to me that there will never be enough. My impression is that most libraries have already given theirs out or are holding them for Monday. We were excited about this but are rapidly becoming frustrated. I am curious what other libraries are doing and how it has gone.
