> Caryn Navy and David Holladay were given a large collection of
>braille books from Abraham Nemeth, the inventor of the Nemeth Braille Code
>for mathematics and science. We are moving soon, and we would like to give
>away this collection of braille books to those who can use them.
> We are offering these books on a first come, first served basis AT NO
>CHARGE. We will ask you to sign a paper saying you will:
>
>1. store the book(s) safely (i.e. not in a basement or garage where
> they may get damaged).
>2. Use the book(s) yourself, or your organization.
>3. If you find yourself not using the book(s), kindly find someone
> else who will accept them on similar terms.
>
> In this round, we will accept requests for up to 5 braille books. In
>September, we will entertain requests for larger number of books.
> So here is how it works. Look through this list. Find the books you
>are interested in. You contact us at davidh@brailleplanet.org,
>608-257-8833 (day), 608-241-2498 (night), or 608-257-4143 (fax) and list
>your choices. Be aware that someone else may have been faster than you, so
>you might not get your choice(s). We get back to you with a simple form
>asking you to care for these books and to pass them on to others on a
>similar basis. Once we have your form, we mail you your books free matter
>for the blind.
> If you want, we can answer some questions (copyright date, length of
>shelf space needed, corrected author's names, etc.).
> If you are able to re-post this on other list-serves or pass this
>information out to others, we would appreciate it.
