Hi Jamie,

The book sounds like a wonderful addition to the collection. If you don't mind, 
I'd like to buy it and scan it.

Thanks for the great suggestion!  Carrie

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Remarkable Conversations

I have been trying to scan this book:
   
  REMARKABLE CONVERSATIONS
  A guide to developing meaningful communication with children and young adults 
who are deafblind
   
  Editors
  Barbara Miles Marianne Riggio
  
 Perkins School for the Blind
  THIS PUBLICATION WAS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE CONRAD N. HILTON FOUNDATION
   
  But the book is just slightly too large for my scanner. I would buy a copy 
and send it to Bookshare but the only one I can find is over $40. I think the 
book is really worth scanning, but to scan it right I'm going to have to figure 
out how to take the lid off my scanner so I can scan half the page and then the 
other half of the page more easily.
   
  Or, I was hoping there might be someone else who can borrow it from a library 
(it's in the Michigan E-Library system) and scan it.
   
  It's in columns, which is not a problem
 for me because Omnipage handles columns really well, but I know some of you 
cannot scan and OCR columnized books very well.
   
  Let me know if you have access to this book and can scan? I haven't done more 
than the first few pages of it.
