Hi Amy,
I looked up the copy of _The God-eater_ here at Michigan and it's in Special Collections, which means I wouldn't be able to scan it, nor would they lend it on ILL. However, I happen to be working on a project in Special Collections (cataloging Islamic mss) and I know that they typically allow things to be photographed with a minimum of hassle. In short, if no one else here on the list has access to an easily scannable copy, then I could photograph the relevant section for you sometime in the next two weeks assuming there are no copyright issues. If you wanted to actually publish the photos then you'd have to work that out with the library.
Best,
Noah

The Interlibrary Loan (Illiad) office at my university tells me they have exhausted their resources and cannot procure a copy for me. Does anyone on this list work or live near one of the above libraries? Or do you happen to have a copy in your personal library? I'd be happy to pay for any photocopying and postage expenses (the section I need has fewer than 50 pages), or, even better, accept a scan of the text via email.
Any suggestions to help track down this text are most welcome!
