we will have Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince available on the day of its

book that morning. Our team of in-house volunteers will scan it, OCR it, give
it a quick validation check then we will upload it to our site and make it
available in DAISY and BRF formats that same afternoon.

them in preparation for the release of book 6, here are the previous 5 Harry
