[Dtb-talk] DAISY Scriptures update.

[Greg Kearney]

As most of you know I have been producing DAISY versions of various  
scriptures in English. Here then is a summery of what I have done as  
well as distribution notes. All the volumes can be downloaded from: http://w3.wmcnet.org/dtbmaker/books/ 
  unless otherwise noted. All of the text are recorded with the Alex  
voice from Apple.

King James Version - Old Testament, New Testament and Apocrypha as  
separate DAISY volumes in 2.02 and DAISY/NISO 2005 format. Navigation  
to the verse.

Douay-Rheim (Catholic) -  Old Testament, New Testament, Apocrypha  
books including in the main text. DAISY volumes in 2.02 and DAISY/NISO

Jefferson. Jefferson removed all of the miracles from the narative as  
well as the resurrection of Christ and the post -resurrection

New International Version (NIV) - Old Testament and New Testament on a  
single ISO disk image. Distribution is restricted to libraries,  
agencies, school, churches and missions serving the blind for  
duplication for their clients. Daisy 2.02 and Daisy/NISO 2005 For more

LDS (Mormon) Scriptures
The LDS (Mormon) Church uses several books of scripture in addition to  
the the King James version of the Bible. The LDS Church in Salt Lake  
City is in the process of producing DAISY versions of these titles as  
well as the King James version of the Bible read by human readers.

Daisy 2.02 and Daisy/NISO 2005 (z3986) versions of the Book of Mormon,  
The Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price that provides  
navigation down to the verse.

The Koran
Daisy 2.02 and Daisy/NISO 2005 (z3986) versions of an English langauge  
translaton of the Koran that provides navigation down to the verse.

I would welcome suggestions for other works, in particular Buddhist  
and hindu scriptures in English as I am not familiar with what should  
be produced.
