The book is already on tape, and the line numbers are omitted. He does
spell every name, though, something unique - or nearly so - for NLS books;
and he also describes the maps - another nearly unique feature of this NLS
book. But it is part of the series we are collaborating on, so we are doing
it as best we can. Most of them are not recorded, or in Braille.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Mangling poetry for Bookshare
It is my opinion that at this stage of Bookshare's technical equipment, trying to do a reasonable job with this poetry is a losing battle. If Kenneth Cross, who does very careful scanning, can't even get the page numbers recognized by the Bookshare equipment, I wouldn't even consider attempting anything as involved as you are proposing to do. This is where approaching NLS would make sense to me. Jill
