Hi Cindy, some readers might find it easier to look at the books in .txt format.


That's what I did with the list you sent me. I converted the .rtf file to plain text and it came out fine for my purposes. If it would help, I'll send you the resultant file.

Though most programs and notetakers will handle .rtf files okay many sort of convert them to .txt anyway.

If you like, tell me to mind my own business and I'll back off--but beware of all the spam you'll get in your computer after your rebuttal <smile>.

I'll send it as an rtf attachment right away.
Elizabeth has been having trouble getting it in rtf
form; nobody else has complained to me. Let me know if
for some reason you can't read it. I'm trying now to
send a Word file to Elizabeth and we'll see how that
works.

Hi Cindy. Would you please send me the fair books
list as well? I
think I have print copies of a few of these books
now. I could post
here about the print books I have and can mail the
educational ones to
the Bookshare office to be scanned. If we all
coordinate our efforts,
we can save Bookshare some money and get the fair
books replaced more
effectively. We could launch a "no fair book left
behind" campaign.
(smile) By this time next year, fair books could be
just a memory, and
new members would be surprised at the quality and
breadth of our
collection of books.

My mom is a romance junkie and is actively looking
for print copies of
some of the fair quality romances. She has a whole
bookcase of
romances and buys a few more each month or so. She
says she'll help me
find them since she knows they don't fall under the
heading of
educational material. I showed her one of the fair
quality books so
she'd know what they look like. She said she had no
idea that fair
books existed and wants to do something to replace
the books. She
really likes the Heartsong Presents and Steeplehill
romances. So if
any of you know of books from these lines that need
to be replaced, my
mom is willing to check her bookcase to see what she
has and will get
some of them for Bookshare. Now if I can just
convince her to learn to
scan them, I'll be in business. (grin)
