If you decide to keep the sets and would like to complete them, you should be in touch with Israel Mizrahi, he’s your best bet for replacing those loose volumes.

Something I've noticed in several sets of reference volumes, is that we are missing 1 or several volumes. Checking the on-line catalog, they have not been there for at least 8 years. Some are Talmudot, some are encyclopedias, some are, well, I don't know what. I have all sorts of Hebrew-reading volunteers offer to help, and can't get them to come in. What do other libraries do with broken sets? How do you decide if it should be kept, if a replacement volume can be ordered (some sets are from the early 60's and 50's), or if the set should go into the genizah? Thanks for any input you can offer.
