[Athen] Important: Needing Access to a Book

[Sebastian M Niles via athen-list]

Hello Helen

My team will sometimes reach out to the authors and ask if they have an electronic copy we could use. This method is usually effective when the authors work in higher education too since they'll have some familiarity with disability accommodations. We also always get a response even if it's just the authors saying they don't have an electronic copy.

Regards

Good morning,



I was wondering if anyone had “Women's Voices, Feminist Visions: Classic and Contemporary Readings” 5th 9780073512327 in a PDF or Microsoft word format. I reached out to the publisher and they denied my request because they no longer have the rights to the book.



What do you do when the authors own the rights?
