Seek two books on New York Burtis family

Seek two books on New York Burtis family

Surnames: Burtis
I would like to read the two books listed below. The only copies I have found are at the Library of Congress. I live on the West Coast, and cannot get to the District of Columbia in the foreseeable future.
Does anyone know of the location of other copies?
Thank you in advance, Tom

“The Burtis family of Hempstead, L.I. to 1800”
Author Helen Robbins Bittermann; Publisher s.n., 1956; Length 48 pages
Library of Congress has a copy: CS71.B8778

“Records of the Burtis family, descendants of Pietro Caesare Alberto (1620-95)”
Library of Congress has a copy: CS71.B8778 Author: Helen Robbins Bittermann
Publisher: [Chicago : s.n., 1955]
Comment: The above book by Bitterman is NOT the book by Maud Bliss Allen, “Burtis- Alburtis, Record of the Descendants of Pietro Caesar Alberti, 1608-1654,” which is available in various locations.

Dear Tom,
You have to go in person to the Brooklyn Historical Society( former Long Island Historical Society) to view Bittermann's materials which they consider too frail to photocopy.
I don't know if this is any better than Washington, DC for you, but it is an alternate place that houses Bittermann's Burtis materials.
Best regards,
Donna
