Hey, I second that. To whom could we write to suggest making this possible for
not only this but other handcopied titles? Have a blessed day.

I remember reading a few of these when I was a kid. I think some of those
handcoppied braille books should be scanned by the optical braille scanner and
added to web braille for posterity, and so we don't loose access to those rare
books.

Hi, all, I have recently learned about a set of books about a nurse named
Cherry Ames. One author started out writing them and then gave copyright to
another author, so I'm not sure which author to list, but the NLS only has them
in handcopied braille--high demand, low quantity of copy, and when it's gone,
it's gone, and hard records from way back, and they recalled their record
players. This seems to be a really good set of books about a nurse. Some of
the titles include Cherry Ames, Veteran nurse; Cherry Ames, Boarding School
nurse; Cherry ames, Cruise Nurse; Cherry Ames, Jungle nurse, and there are
several others. I think these would add nicely to bookshare and hopefully will
be easy scans. Have a blessed day, thanks in advance, and happy
scanning/proofreading.
