I want you all to know that Bookshare did my textbooks for my classes this semester and they did a wonderful job. I got my books in time to start school. They did the books within the same week they received them in the mail. I give major props to everyone working at Bookshare for the incredible job they're doing with texts.

Ron et al, Yes. I agree. Any books that anyone in Bookshare needs for school, or to help their student in school, plese let us know directly, by writing to me and cc'ing Mandy Throckmorton, and we will work directly with you to getthose books scanned into the collection in time for the needed date. And ifyou need help validating (e.g. as we did for the Latin textbooks), we can solicit help from the lists for that as well. I wouldn't want to give any student an excuse for being late with his homework (e.g. the scanner ate my book!). and a p.s. to Ron, is your son a student at CU Boulder by any chance? Cc'ing bksvol and Mandy.

That way they might be scanned more quickly. If they get scanned quickly, you or your son can download them for validation and then he'll have them for class while you're validating. CindyAs the man used to say 'Will the real Ron Ingram please stand up?' Here I am. No, I am not a pseudonym. I believe that 'E' was commenting on your response back to me. I requested several books for my son, who needs them for school this term. This particular translation was among them. I will take a look at the version you pointed me to (sorry, I'm brand new to this and still figuring out how to use the tools) and see if that's close enough. My thanks to both of you for your comments and suggestions. -ron ingram- -----Original Message----- From: E.

I recognize the translator of the one on bookshare. I am not a doublt personality though just wait until I have been with bookshare a little longer and it may come. E.
