The "Blue Book" usually distributed before major elections through libraries is NOT available this year because of its size (160 pages!) and timing on final text. The Legislative Council is unable to provide sufficient copies. You may wish to inform your staff where the document can be located on the Internet. You may also wish to put a link on your library's home page. This is a very popular document with the general public and contains summaries of issues from all sides. A PDF version is at www.coloradobluebook.com <BLOCKED::outbind://45/www.coloradobluebook.com> The Colorado Talking Book Library records the Blue Book for patrons. This year an audio file of the Blue Book has been posted on that web site. Anyone who prefers the audio version to reading can use the service.
