  Yes, it would certainly be nice.  I think Bookshare has other priorities that 
I believe should take precedence.  Perhaps you might want to think about 
creating a weekly e-mail yourself and posting it to the list.

  That is how I find-out what the latest bestsellers are.  However, I do know 
that not everybody does this.  Also, it is easier to store one little email 
which everybody can access and discuss.  It is just a thought.  It would make 
getting these bestsellers *all of them* on Bookshare.

    It would be great if every week's NY Times bestseller list could be posted 
on this list.  That way, if Bookshare does not get the books, we can get them 
on our own.  It would be a money saver and time saver all around.

      If a book is published next week, hits the NYT bestseller list, then 
falls off that list in two or three weeks, it won't make the March list. If 
such a scenario presents itself, will Bookshare be able to make 
middle-of-the-month purchases, so that all books which grace the bestseller 
list that are not already part of the collection, will be added? This leads 
logically to another question. Is Bookshare aiming to get *all* NYT bestsellers 
into the collection? Or is this based on monetary limitations and/or other 
criteria?

       

      Thanks,

      Scott

        Hi gang,

        Here's the list of the bestsellers.  Instead of putting in a huge order 
once a month, I've been picking the books up as I stumble across them in my 
wanderings around bookstores.  I've included the status of each book after the 
title so you can see where it is in the scanning and validation process.
