When I looked for it I went to the online catalog, selected short search,
or whatever it's called when you can just put in a part of a title, and
searched for "half-blood prince". I couldn't find a place to input the
br16000, but when it came up, it had that BR number.

Please, please tell me where it is. I've looked twice on the NLS site and
have still not found them. I looked under "list" then "R" for Rowling. I
see the other seven books, but no HBP.

Subject: [Braillenote] harry potter
Hi all,
Just a follow-up to my note of earlier this morning. I do indeed have
all eight volumes of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. They
*are* there. I'm getting used to this shock, but man does it take
some getting used to! When I think that I had to wait two years for
Watership Down. When I think that there were books upon books that
all my friends were reading, and I couldn't get them because they
either weren't in the NLS process or weren't brailled or recorded.
When I think of all the times I would watch my mother going off to the
library or the bookstore and have her return hours, yes hours later
loaded down with books! It's a miracle. Oh, not a supernatural one,
but it is a technological one. To think that I can have eight volumes
of Braille on a card the size of a matchbook! I have The American
Pocket Dictionary here in hard copy Braille. It's in eight volumes.
Oh, and I didn't even mention the Bookshare books and the other books
I have on my five gig drive.
Yes, it's a shock, and it does take some getting used to. And yes,
old Isaac, you started it all, and are responsible for my fainting spell.
<smile> My cat is so full of himself today he's demanding his treats
be given every hour since he revived me.
Sorry for the philosophizing, but I can't help it. I just can't help
it, folks!
Ann P.
