Another excellent place to search is the catalogue at

If you find a suitable text there, you will then need to contact the organization which holds it, details of which are included in the catalogue entry.

> I was grandfathered into the system so the same rules apply to me, but I'm not
> sure what individual memberships cost. They do have audio books on Linear
> Algebra.

> There is mathML, laTex and I just ran upon a site that loaded something called

> book they found particularly accessible and understandable?
> This can be an audio book or another format as mentioned above.

> Also, If you know of specific authors, Readers or Titles and sources could you
