Question about Loyally voulumes I&II
 
I am a Delta member of Gamma Eta at the University of Memphis. I'm the Guard, and I am trying to locate volumes I&II because I'm interested in our Ritual history and Gamma Eta history as well.

If anyone can locate these or has these, scan and make PDFs of some parts and email me, I would be appreciative. I know they're hard to locate and not all chapters have all three volumes (we only have the third), and that they go for hundreds of dollars when they show up on eBay, but I am hopeful to find or borrow them.

Of course you are.

Really? EO no longer sells these books. And of course I am, I know it must take severe boredom to respond to a thread you have no authority to respond on the topic.

Let's just be Panhellenic and Interfraternal.

ADPis who can help should respond.

You know what you did.

No one thread should have so much failure.

Is something wrong? Because I last time I checked, I was just reaching out with a question. I didn't expect any Greek to be rude and reply out of lack of concern. Maybe I give too many the benefit of the doubt.

Lemme try to help.

#1: This is an open discussion board. Everyone has the "authority" to post in any thread.

#2: You're a random asking people to scan and email ritual information to you. You don't think that's a bit suspect?

Here's some more help:

it's illegal to do what you're asking (scan and pdf copyrighted material without written consent from the publisher).

Let me see, I posted under Alpha Delta Pi. Why should a TKE respond? True everyone has the ability to respond; however, just because someone says something on a subject, it doesn't mean they have factual knowledge on the subject which in turn makes them an authority on the subject.

Also, these are published books. They are NOT the ritual books of my sorority.

I could pay $185 for them on abebooks.com, but I thought I'd cover all bases first.

I could ask EO to fax me the pages I need, so no it's not illegal to do this or ask this. There is permission.

Uh huh. So, it's illegal to ask people to copy/scan/send you sections without getting written permission from the publisher.

So, you're asking people to rip off the author(s) by illegally copying sections and sending them to you. That's what you mean by "cover all bases"?

Fork out the $. Do the right thing.

As a published author, I am tired of people copying my materials and passing them around for free. It's NOT okay. It's stealing.
