[Athen] Need advice for dealing with a publishing company

[Adina Mulliken]

The Nicomachean Ethics ISBN you sent pulled up a copy in Internet Archive here https://archive.org/details/nicomacheanethic0000aris_w5n4  .  If the public version in Internet Archive doesn't work, I understand that you can sign up as an organization that borrows books for people with disabilities.  My school's AccessAbility Office did that pretty quickly, and that gives you more options of formats to download.  It still didn't always give an option that my school could make work, but more formats than they'd have otherwise.

    Hello All!

    I was wondering if anybody has had any luck with the publishing company Penguin Random House on getting books in accessible format?

    I have reach out to them a few times and keep getting the response  "we don't have that book in accessible format/PDF"

    I am trying to get the book Nicomachean Ethics (ISBN: 9780140449495)
    I have looked on bookshare and accesstext doesn't work with that publishing company.

    Any suggestions on how to get this book before I have to resort to cutting and scanning it?

    Thank you in advance.
