Hi Louisa
You  saide 
"Yes we are actively growing our Talking Book collection and this
will go across all format options including DAISY."  

Does Braille get included?

So any books as a talking book  will also  be in Braille!

Hope I have this right.

Regards, Derek

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.
