[nabs-l] Having a hard time finding textbooks

[Vejas Vasiliauskas]

Hi Jessica,
Are you looking for Braille or audio textbooks? Are these for 
college?
If I can't find a textbook on Bookshare, I'll buy a print copy, 
then have DSS scan it.  The PDF's are then put on my USB stick by 
chapter.  BARD is a good web site for audio books.
You could also hire a reader.  At my DSS they find the reader by 
department, although the DSS staff are also very willing to read 
something for me (as long as I can let them know in advance, of 
course).
Hope this helps,
Vejas

Hi,
I need to find a few textbooks.
I have the isbn numbers, but Googling them, and searching other 
sources, yields no helpful results, and sometimes nothing at all.
What can I do?
Where can I go to get these books?

Thanks,
Jessica
