Hi Carol,

Yes we are actively growing our Talking Book collection and this will go across 
all format options including DAISY. I emailed you this morning when I read you 
couldn't read my reply to you yesterday, I've BCC'd you into this reply so 
hopefully you receive this.

Kind regards,
Louisa.

OK Derek,

She's gone as far as she is going to but still doesn't address my question 
of the "**NEW**" books, whether there will be new ones in Daisy.  However, I 
am not taking this further on list.
