Hopefully you can check into this and find that this is available to you as well. You can request the books to be transferred to your local library &#38; just pick them up when they are in. We've found most of our needed books on the SCM bookfinder this way. </p> <p>Blessings </p> http://simplycharlottemason.com/scmforum/topic/bookfinder-and-the-library#post-5401 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 16:18:12 +0000 Sonya Shafer 5401@http://simplycharlottemason.com/scmforum/ <p>You could check for online versions at</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page">Gutenberg.org</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.mainlesson.com/main/displayarticle.php?article=christmas">The Baldwin Online Project</a></li> <li><a href="http://books.google.com/">Google Books</a></li> </ul> <p>or just do a search on Google for the title and author's last name. You might find an online version in a university's library database or something. </p> <p>Also, if your library offers Inter-Library Loans (where they borrow the books from other libraries), you might use that service. </p> http://simplycharlottemason.com/scmforum/topic/bookfinder-and-the-library#post-5379 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 11:41:46 +0000 jennifer 5379@http://simplycharlottemason.com/scmforum/ <p>I have continually tried to find books listed in the bookfinder and books in the book "Books Children Love" but it seems to be rare that I find them at my local library. I end up purchasing some books used online but that can be costly after a while. And after I receive the book I may not even like it. Are there any other aventues to finding some of these great living books besides my library and buying them? Is there a sight for free ebooks or something? </p>
