What I would be interested in knowing is whether these publishers are sending their new books to Bookshare when they are released, or is that more of a hit-or-miss type of thing. There is a book coming out from Del Rey on August 24 that I really, really want to read. (Did I say "really"?) I mean REALLY! It is the third installment of Peter F. Hamilton's Void trilogy. I already have a proofreader lined up for it, (that is, someone else who wants to read my scan after I finish reading through it. It's the same proofreader who read the first two volumes after I scanned them. We agreed last year to do the final book together when it came out.) I suppose I should just wait and see if it comes up that day, or shortly thereafter. But if it doesn't, then I'm going to scan it and just take my lumps when it gets replaced. At least I will have gotten to read it soon after it comes out, rather than waiting on the publisher to get around to sending it over and not knowing when that might happen. On the other hand, if new books are coming in to Bookshare on a pretty reliable basis as they are published in their traditional paper form, then I'll do my best to curb my impatience, although it won't be easy in this particular case.

I forget who belongs where. Those mergers make one's head spin.
