How do you do that?

Hi ;;;;;;;;;;;;

Kant, when I first read it.

It's OK, sirmyk. I ordered it from Amazon. I just wanted to try if the 'order any book' from your local shop works. I suppose it does if your local shop is a good one. I have done that before at Blackwell, but there is nothing like that locally. I'll just keep using the internet.

Rex, I don't know how joyo works, because I don't understand Chinese. I thought it would be the same as the other foreign branches of Amazon, where I can still search for books in English and get them.

The story about bluebeard's daughter is in the same collection I mentioned in my previous post.

My arms are full of bruises because every time the puppy wants something, he grabs one of my arms and drags me to the place. When he wants to sit in a particular places he pushes people out if there is not enough room. This is a familiar thing. Years ago we had a kitten who used to ran upstairs...

Jay said any book can be ordered from your local shop and they will get it for you. Well, it doesn't always work. I tried to buy Palindrome Hannah in my local branch of Waterstones. The shop assistant could not even spell the title, tried to search by author and failed (probably spelled it wrong...

Amazon opened a Chinese site 5 or 6 months ago. It's called www.joyo.com I don't know how much can you find in it. If it's like the other international sites, you should still be able to order English books from it.

I just remember something about Journals and academic papers databases. They usually have a subscription policy but, for institutions like university, the subscription is not personal but made to the organisation. It's the same as buying a computer programme for a company and getting X number of...

Welcome to the forum I have a nose too but I did not come by it through the forum. I already had it before I joined.:)
