Guest guest Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 I have ways of getting kids books here in Ontario. If you need a helping hand, I'm here. Just e-mail and I'll send them your way. Sincerely yours; Krista Bach.

I really would rather not get into real specifics quite yet as 1. We are trying not to let some... shall we say certian organziations know about our plans as they may try to shut us down if they view us as competition and 2. we still have some legal issues to sort out with copyright. That being said, we are starting to collect kids books in print, printbraille, or braille to be used in a lending library here in British Columbia. We have been scouring booksales, thrift stores and so on for kids books that we then take apart and transform them into print/braille. Our goal is to have a signifcant collection before opening up our website for business. We are also taking board games and transforming them as well. However, I am NOT asking for donations of those at this time as they will be much to hard to send via post. If anyone has kids books they simply do not need anymore and wish to donate them to a good cause, please do consider donating to us as an option. We just ask for the books to be in relatively good condition, a little wear and tear on the covers are fine as we do laminate them to extend their use. If you would like any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me at christine-ann@.... Thank you!!!
