Unfortunate truncation

My wife and I borrow a lot of books from the library. Up to a dozen a week. So we want to avoid fines. Fortunately, our library account is online and readily hacked through Perl's WWW::Mechanize module, so we both have cron jobs that inform us when any book is imminently due.

It seems that the library catalog truncates its book titles... sometimes in unfortunate places. Grace just received a message that said "Fast & flexible ways to personalize your ho is due on 08-25-07"

Oops.
