------------------
Hello colleagues:

I was quite distressed to learn that an American publisher of Chinese 
textbooks wanted to charge us for digitizing their audio tapes, for which we 
had already paid much more than the usual cost. (We haven't reached the stage 
of streaming video yet.)  They claimed that they were to small *not* to 
require additional fees.  Unfortunately, as a NY state public institution, we 
can't afford it either.

Best regards,
Becky Adae
