[bksvol-discuss] submitting, and my first visit to the library!

Hi all,
Yesterday I had the wonderful experience of visiting the enormous and very 
up-to-date library in downtown Minneapolis. I grabbed the following to scan:
Beacon at Alexandria by Gillian Bradshaw,
(this is my all-time favorite historical fiction author, so the validator will 
be in for a treat.)

Spring of the Ram, Niccolo Volume 2 
(Bookshare has the first in this series, and it's a great scan and a great read 
for those who like historical fiction. My goal is to make my scan at least as 
good as the first volume, and so far it's scanning beautifully and requiring 
virtually no effort on my part to achieve perfection.)

And:
The Six Wives of Henry VIII by Alison Weir
This being a library copy, the binding isn't so tight that I'll have to do 
major damage to my arms to get a good scan. I know others here had an interest 
in this book, and since we had so much recent discussion about it, I thought I 
go ahead and grab it and give it a try. I've read and liked other books by this 
author; scholarly but very readable and neither flinching from unpleasant 
details nor wallowing in them.
Thanks all, and hopefully I will become a regular at the library; they even 
have computers with JAWS and scanning software there, so it really wouldn't be 
a bad thing for me to explore it.
Thanks, and happy reading!
Kellie
