[nabs-l] Cyting NLS Material

[Antonio M. Guimaraes]

Hello Serena,

I think I found a solution to the NLS book issue, but to assume I have the 
time and money to find the book, hire a reader, find the relevant text on 
the print book, I would have  no time to do the writing itself.

I might as well only work with books off of a library, one I can check out, 
scan, and have page numbers for.

That might take me 4 hours at minimum for one or two citations. I'll take 
alternative workable ways that may take me 10 minutes max.
.

I found the following on the purdue site:

Electronic Books
Electronic books may include books found on personal websites, databases, or 
even in audio form. Use the following format if the book you are using is 
only provided in a digital format or is difficult to find in print. If the 
work is not directly available online or must be purchased, use "Available 
from," rather than "Retrieved from," and point readers to where they can 
find it.

I realize the usefulness of readers, but they are not always the answer to 
every blind person't every reading need, right Mike Freeman?
