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.

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?

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.

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.

Just being honest: I never thought people could be this rude. However, it is the Internet.
If I were a recipient of one of these books from a closed chapter, I would NEVER sell them to begin with. Secondly, if a sister or a chapter needed them, I would simply donate/give them to those people who needed them.
It's not a matter of the technical issues, it's the being kind and civil that gets me.
