Hello everyone,
My name is Nita Ross. I have been making lace for a year now and I've
been reading the posts to Arachne for a few months. I've been
learning lots regarding lace from everyone, some of which I've been
able to relate to visitors at Heritage Park. I live in Calgary
Alberta and have been volunteering 2 days a week at Heritage Park
demonstrating bobbin lace and tatting for the last three months.
Working at least fourteen hours of lace per week has really improved
my lace making.
I've been looking at the digital library and would like to download
some of the books to my e-reader. I've downloaded calibre. I can't
figure out how to download the pdf files to calibre. Any help you can
give would be really appreciated.
We have a small lace group in Calgary and I know for sure that
everyone in my group would be very interested in this library once I
figure out how to do this.
Nita

A couple of us have tried converting the .pdf files from the Antique

Library using Calibre. They wouldn't convert, so I did some
research, &
apparently they use DRM technology which won't allow file
conversion. I'm on
their yahoo group, so I asked if there was a way to make them
available for
conversion. I'm waiting for a reply.
I was able to use Calibre to convert the
.pdf files from the On-Line Digital Archives at cs.arizona. Yay!! I
now have
several lace books on my Nook. Here's the addy for the archives that
takes you
