The Complete Songs and Poems
Greetings all!
I am starting this thread to mainly ask if any-one knows where I am able to aquire all the songs/poems from the Silmarillion/Hobbit/Lord of the rings books in one document? The reason I'm looking for this is that I've set myself the challenge of transcribing all the Middle Earth Songs/poems into the Tengwar (Sindarin mode). I've been using the Tengwar for some time now and have finally become good enough to achieve this task, I've done a couple already which you can view here if your interested http://nikkicadd.deviantart.com/ I obviously have the books, but I don't want to ruin the spines as I'd have to keep them open for extended periods while I transcribe the poems, If there was a website that has them all on one page/pdf document, that would be ideal! If not, then I guess I'll have to copy and paste into a pdf from the sites I've found them on and upload it somewhere! If you know of such a site, please let me know so I can get on with my work! lol! Namarie Nx

I used to know one or two sites, but as far as I know they all got cease and desist letters from the Tolkien Estate lawyers long ago. If there are any left, I'm guessing they'll be wisely staying under the radar. I have since no longer had a use for them anyway, so I can't help you with those.
But how about loaning library books? Those mostly already have suffered several readers to have cracked spines already.
