on a computer outside of the house (work, library, parents) set up a gmail or yahoo account... and then NEVER access it from your home computer
using your regular email, send to the new email account the documents you need copies of...
make sure you delete those emails from the account you sent them from (go into the 'sent' or 'outbox' folder & delete from there) this is really a mute point once you are out of the house.. him knowing you have copies of the financial papers is really a given... I think you're just making sure you're not leaving a trail he could find BEFORE you leave.
the other option is to put the files on a thumb drive... I wouldn't copy them onto a CD as the programs that do the copying may leave a trail within the copy program.
dont' forget making paper copies even easier & not tracable.
however, either way.. make sure after you open the files you want to make copies of (either digitally or in print) that you either clear the 'recent documents' history or you open up 50 more documents such as pictures, word documents, spreadsheets, what ever.. that are 'innocent'...to mask what had been opened up.
there are several places a history of 'recent documents' are kept... make sure you are clearing them all.
Also clear the cache.. and don't forget the history on the web browswer.
As far as him getting access to the books you are checking out.. maybe ask a friend to check them out for you... or buy them as audio books and download them to an mp3 player (again using a work computer, friend or parents)
be vigilant.. and careful Peace Bridge

Taking the road less traveled because those encountered on the way may be just as unique.
