Hello folks - I’ve tried all.the usual spots like Anna’s archive and Z library and so on to no avail. This is the book in question -
There’s a copy of it on internet archive but it’s only accessible to American people with impaired sight it seems.
Anyone know a way around it?
only accessible to American people with impaired sight
damn usa really loves to mean test everything
Seriously.
And I know this is backwards thinking but the idea that the policy is “Well give you this book for free but only if it’s exceptionally difficult for you to read it” is some cartoonishly cruel means testing.

I just tested this, it worked for me, @MaoTheLawn@hexbear.net
Excellent - yep - I don’t know how I didn’t get it before!
Thanks
The archive can be a bit spotty at times. Sometimes you just have to try again later.
Oh. Wow. Thanks. That’s so strange! I tried it about 5 minutes before making the post!
Thanks!

Huh didn’t know that was a thing that the archive did. I’m both of those things (unfortunately) and could try registering if you don’t need it right this second.
If you do end up using getting the Library of Congress credentials and can’t figure out how to de-DRM the encrypted DAISY file(s) I can help
Hey! Thanks for the offer! I appreciate it. It turned up on Anna’s Archive suddenly though, somehow. I have no idea how I didn’t find it on there before.
It’s not on your university database/library?
Interlibrary loan / library request seems to be the way, I couldn’t even find it on LibGen… hopefully you don’t need it within about two weeks, OP.
Edit: happy to have been proven wrong on this one
I go to a theatre uni so they’ve only got access to some pretty niche performance stuff. Pretty annoying to be honest.
