Hi,

There are five or so libraries in the L.A. area that have that book. 
Would you consider a list of those libraries an adequate answer?

juggler: Yes, that will do.  But please make sure you are talking
about The Complete Works of Han Fei Tzu, Volumes I & II Translated by
W.K. Liao.  I don't want the Burton Watson translation.
