Scott,If you download it, and it really is bad, be sure to submit a quality report. This is what this is for and they really do respond to quality issues. If we don't submit quality issues, Bookshare staff won't know there is any issue. If we, as users of the site want to have the highest quality books available, then we need to take advantage of the opportunity to report any issues when we find them.

Barbara,The copy that is in the collection was submitted a number of years ago, so I fear it may be the same flawed copy you've encountered. I'll go ahead and take the plunge of downloading, and let you know what I find.Scott ----- Original Message ----- *From:* Barbara <mailto:barbarab65@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> *To:* bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> *Sent:* Tuesday, June 22, 2010 10:37 PM *Subject:* [bksvol-discuss] Re: DSM IV Is it in the collection? The last time I looked, it was not in the collection. A few years ago, I downloaded the older file and it was in terrible shape. Lines were cut off, etc. If it is in the collection, is anyone doing anything about correcting it? I really need it but in order to read it, I need it to be in better shape than the older file.

I think it's the bible for folks in the fields of therapy/psychology, etc. I've been quizzed by a colleague about the accuracy of the Bookshare copy.

Is it in fact in excellent condition? Before I go digging through something which I don't personally have much knowledge of, I figured I'd ask a group which I'm certain contains a number of experts on the subject. Any thoughts? Scott
