Hi, Roger. Just to add to what Cindy has written, those of us who
submit books either buy them or get them from a local library. That's
a big reason why we like specific titles and authors. Some of us scan
books in specific genres while others tackle books from almost any
genre as long as they're on the wish list. Our submitters range in age
from late teens to in their 70s, and we have people with doctorate
degrees on down to those who never completed high school. So if you
have books that interest you, chances are good you'll find someone
else who likes them too. Finally, if you own print books from this
publisher you've suggested, you can either ask for a volunteer to scan
your book for you or mail your book to the Bookshare office to be
scanned. If you mail your book to Bookshare, they chop off the spine
and feed it through their high-speed scanner and then put the book on
step 1 for you to validate. I hope this helps you to get your book
wishes filled. (smile)
