Hi everyone, first of all Happy New Year! I hope 2009 is a year of peace, health, and serenity for everyone in this community.
Question - has anyone found a source of Alanon literature (e.g. Courage to Change, ODAT, How Alanon Works, etc.) in electronic format ? I have these books and others in the usual paper format, but as I travel a lot for work I would love to have electronic copies of some/all of these on my laptop, or (this would be really cool) maybe even on my Blackberry..... I've done some searching on the web and and I can't seem to find anywhere that has the Alanon literature in any kind of electronic (e-book, HTML, Word file, whatever) form.... Just for comparison I was able to find the AA Big Book in such format....
This has to exist somewhere (???) ... does anyone have a source ? By the way I'd be happy to pay for the literature, I'm not necessarily looking for free versions.
I was going to suggest the AA big book as that is the one I have found. I hope someone will reply with some Al-Anon stuff, too.
In recovery,

Larry and Jen, I honestly do not think it does. I know that there was a CD (text file, not sound) of Courage to Change, I think, and perhaps one other book but that was as close as one could get to having it on your computer.
By way of update, I posted a similar question on another board and someone pointed me to a site that seems to have Courage to Change on a CD.... I'm not sure if you can post links on this board so if not I'll just spell out the site name .... it's called recoverysuperstore dot com. CTC is listed as an option on the Audio/Video section. It's actually listed as PC Software and mentions that a sound card is required, so I'm wondering if maybe the daily readings are actually done in audio book style, with someone reading them out loud.
I'll keep searching and let you know if I find anything else.
