That may be what I have to do, unless the director recommends a
comparable biography which would still give me the same information
and is available on either BARD or Bookshare.

Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner of my own, and since this isn't
a traditional course (it is study abroad, but since my university
doesn't offer it for credit they're hands are out of the pot on this
and I'm getting none of my accommodations through them) I don't think
the disability services office would be able to do it.  I'll start
looking into other options for the scanning.
