Hello Sharonda,

You might consider looking for the Book on Bookshare.  I believe Bookshare
accounts are free for students but you would need to contact them for
requirements.  If Bookshare doesn't have the book, you might ask them to
scan it and tell them you need it right away.  I hope this helps.

Dan

Sharonda
Is it possible to request this book in the text format?

It is also possible Student Services at the school can either convert the
PDF into text, or request an accessible book for you.

Some schools have staff members who assist students with special needs.

I may have other ideas, I will check my notes.

Hi list,
Wondering if there are some low cost programs or ways to convert a image pdf
into text. I have a book for school that is 429 pages, but it's an image.
All help in this is truly appreciated.
