Hi Valerie and Chela,
Bookshare's conversion tools can't handle musical notation. Perhaps if it
were images of musical notation from the publisher they might be retained,
but our scans can't retain musical notation.
So, Valerie, I'd check with Carrie to be sure that a book of music without
the notation is still acceptable to submit and isn't considered to be
incomplete. I think it's fine, but I'm not sure.

Only on Bookshare is working on Christmas Carols in September an admirable
task. This is a Golden Book Christmas Caron Book, presented like sheet
music. I know nothing about musical notation for the blind, so my thought
is just to unit verses, etc.
All the harp and music talk had me waxing nostalgic and I very much want
others to share in some classic carols in word. Unless of course, someone is
equal to the task of describing the musical notes...
It is only about 35 pages...
