That is why students who can hear need to use RFB&D as well as Book Share.
RFB&D's readers will describe, pictures, and read statistics. If people send
the books to RFB&D and give them enough time, the books can be read onto tape.
I am sure most of you guys already know this but for those who don't, I
thought that this information might be helpful.

Offering a higher reward for validating textbooks or technical

materials on certain topics--psychology, history, neurology, language and
linguistics--but you couldn't possibly pay me enough to get me to validate an
economics book. <grin> I also have an idea that if someone is going to use a
book for a class, the book needs to be in really good shape. There's nothing
more frustrating than trying to interpret the contents of a text and learn from
it at the same time. And if you're doing the work from a textbook and reading
it for a class it can be almost impossible to do a good editing job at the same
time.
