Book Scan Request

[edit]

Hi Justin,

Do you live in the United States?

If yes, could you help scan this book into Wikisourceː

"A Chinese-English dictionary of the Kien-Ning dialect. Arranged alphabetically according to the Kien-Ning romanized."

The author is L J Bryer and it was published in 1901. The book in Austin, Texas is loanable.

A copy of the book can be found hereː https://search.lib.utexas.edu/discovery/fulldisplay?docid=alma991054845419706011&context=L&vid=01UTAU_INST:SEARCH&lang=en&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&adaptor=Local%20Search%20Engine&tab=Everything&query=any,contains,A%20Chinese-English%20Dictionary%20of%20the%20Kien-Ning%20Dialect:%20Arranged%20Alphabetically%20According%20to%20the%20Kien-Ning%20Romanized&offset=0

@TonyL2020: I live in Canada, in the Toronto area. I believe this dictionary is in the Royal Ontario Museum's rare books library, which does not allow borrowing of books. I can book an appointment to see if it can be scanned. Justinrleung (talk) 15:53, 14 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
That would be awesome if you could book an appointment and try to scan it. (I do not live in the USA nor Canada). --TonyL2020 (talk) 02:33, 16 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
