[nabs] project?

[Ashley Bramlett]

Josh,
Remember though that anything in the public domain has to be non 
copyrighted. The reasons that NLS and bookshare are limited to students and 
have proof of disability is because of copyright.  You just cannot go out 
and reproduce things in public cyberspace that is copyrighted.
I don't know what religious matterials are copy righted but check on that 
first.
Generally to reproduce matterials in accessible format you need permission 
from the publisher.
