Hi, 

Like Carrie, IF you don't mind the book being chopped and ran through an ADF
I would be open to doing them. Let me know if you need someone to do them.

These books are indeed long and are worth reading.  They lend 
themselves to being scann by someone with an ADF.  If I had one I'd 
offer to help out.  If you don't get any takers here, you could 
always buy the books and send them to Carrie at the Bookshare 
office.  She has a very fast scanner with a nice ADF for handling 
longer books.  In fact, you can have Amazon ship them right to the 
office without you worrying about boxing up books.
