[humanser] books in an accessible format

[JD TOWNSEND]

Dear Eddie:

If you can't find these texts in the usual way you may have to do as I have 
done from time to time and scan them yourself.  Using one of the 
commercially available software packages, such as OmniPage, OpenBook or 
Kurzeiwile some of which your school may have available if you don't, you 
can have your own copy.  It is boring, but wonderful.  And, if you get a 
good copy of the book you may choose to make it available to others on this 
list or to a wide audience of blind students and readers through BookShare.

I for one would be interested in reading the first title you are seeking.

Best of luck.
