Hi, Roger, I found out the protected Daisy Books have a password.
Unfortunately, I don't know what password they use. I've also sent an
email to openlibrary.org about what I'm telling you. What did you have
to do to get a password for downloading protected Daisy files from
there? Regards, Kim Friedman.

To find the books at Open Library that are not also at Gutenberg try
adding
the key words "protected Daisy" as well as "accessible book." Be sure to
use
the quotation marks again. To refine your search further just use other
key
words or click the refining tags at the bottom of each page of search
results. It is those tags at the bottom of the page that I mean when I
refer
to user tags. When you find the catalog listing for any book click the
edit
tab and you can add or remove those tags. Let me also advise this. When
you
start to use any site always be sure to read all the FAQ and any other
informational material that the site has available. That can really make
any
site easier to use and cut down on the number of questions you will have
to
ask other users.
