Okay, if you don't want it back, we shall indeed de-spine and scan it in. Send
it to the Bookshare office c/o Marissa, and when she gets it, one of us
volunteers will start working on it.
Thanks! It seems that there are LOTS of people who like cookbooks. I will try
to pick some more up at next month's book sale.

Actually you guys can keep the book when you are done, despined and pages
separated, smile.
Particularly if I get a copy an accessible copy back in return.
I can't use a perfectly good print copy anyway, and my parents have a number
of cook books so don't want it.
I shall mail it in.
But indeed, destroy and donate it, if you guys want.

Hi Shelley,
Yes you can send the book to the Bookshare office and we can scan it, BUT we
have to de-spine the book and separate all of the pages before scanning.
Are you sure you want to do this? It wrecks the book. I don't know if
there's a flat-bed scanner at the office. It wouldn't wreck the book, but
it would take someone a few hours to scan your book in. Maybe Marissa or
Gustavo knows. I'll ask them when I go in this week (I don't know if the
office is open tomorrow or not - I assume not since it's a holiday).
BTW, if it's spiral-bound, there's no problem. We can unbind it, scan it,
rebind it, and send it back to you. Josh has already sent in the NFB 50th
Anniversary cookbook for this.

Oh, Kerry I can't wait for these to come out!
Hey got a question, can I send you all a cook book to do?
It is called the Cook's Encyclopedia to Chocolate, and alas I can't scan it
because of those lovely fractions, so it has been sitting here for over a
year now. It isn't a very long book, relatively speaking, I think two
hundred pages, but the pages are thick.
May I send it to you all?

Hi all,
I have submitted, downloaded and uploaded:
The Chocolate Cookbook, and
The Microwave Cookbook.
After they're approved, they should be on the site. If anyone finds a
mistake in them, please let me know so I can fix it, especially if it's a
measurement or some such. I believe that all of the measurements are
correct, but one or two errors may have slipped thru my oh-so-careful
checking. I have recommended to Marissa that all cookbooks stay in the
office, just in case someone has a question about the exact words or numbers
in them.
In the next few weeks, I should finish up:
Omaha Steaks Good Life Guide & Cookbook,
Cooking for Two ... or Just for You, and
The Microwave Master.
Carrie
