Dear All, In addition to my last email I have just found that Amazon provide a free Kindle reading app so you can read Kindle books on a computer or a variety of other devices, without having to buy the Kindle itself. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/feature.html/ref=dig_arl_box?ie=UTF8&docId=1000425503 Best wishes, Julia ----- Original Message ----- From: Julia Cussans To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2013 8:26 AM Subject: Re: [ZOOARCH] digital (pdf) versions of key resources Dear David, Several of these books can be bought as kindle editions on Amazon, see for example: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Zooarchaeology-Cambridge-Manuals-Archaeology-Elizabeth-ebook/dp/B00180OX1S/ref=tmm_kin_title_0?ie=UTF8&qid=1381994535&sr=1-1 I guess this would be the easiest, legal way of getting hold of full electronic copies of such texts. Best wishes, Julia ----- Original Message ----- From: David R. Lipovitch To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2013 8:10 PM Subject: [ZOOARCH] digital (pdf) versions of key resources Greetings all. I am trying to build a more comprehensive set of references for my work while in Turkey. While in many cases the actual books are available through my university's library system, or I already own tehm myself, I would like to have a digital version I could simply keep on-site and without needing to worry about the effects of storage in a non-climate controlled facility over the winter. I'm trying to locate PDF versions of the following and would be thrilled if anyone could send me what they have: O'CONNOR, T. P. (2000). The archaeology of animal bones. College Station, Texas A & M University Press. GILBERT, B. M. (1980). Mammalian osteology. Laramie, Wyo. (709 Kearney, Laramie, Wyo. 82070), B.M. Gilbert.
