[Blindtlk] Victor Reader Stream Question...

Mon Nov 26 03:31:24 UTC 2012

Hurray!!!

The information from this list was great, as usual!  I went directly to the 
Minnesota library page, and found the form exactly as directed.  I filled it 
out, and have received my conformation.  Now I'll just sit back and wait.

    Thank you again!

    I am of course aware of the state library services, as well as bookshare 
and audible.  Are there any other great sites for books, either audio or 
text written, that I should be aware of for my new Streem?

Respectfully Yours in Christ,
James Kelm
