it's difficult, books already have a pretty low demand compared to games/videos/software.
perhaps even try searching at your library, checking it out, and scanning it.
i'm about to do that with a book that isn't available digitally.
Sadly, these books aren't available at the library. Libraries where I'm from depend on book donations, so many of the books don't go beyond 2010-2015 and anything published after those years are impossible to get unless you order them on Amazon or via the magazine website.
Only other thing I could think of would be to go the public universities near you and try to get the help of an archivist there.
They may not have it, but they'd be your best bet for ways to find it.
I checked it out and learned that that service isn't available at my local university. I'd have to leave the country and go to a foreign university for that.
But thank you so much for your help! I didn't even know archivists were a thing.
