[nabs-l] Having a hard time finding textbooks

Hi, Jessica--

There should be plenty of time at this point to submit requests on
Bookshare for your titles. They typically can produce a raw scan (if
mentioned in the request) within a couple weeks.

Also, if you send me some examples, I can see if I am able to find
them anywhere.

Best of luck!
