It's a split for me because I really like having the download link on the
same page as the book list. I wanted that feature. I do want to see a short
synopsis too though. I want both, not an either or deal. I don't want to
open a books individual page unless I want more details about it.

I think the jury is still out on the new site, but I also miss the short
synopsis.
Why have both a short and long synopsis if they are going to appear together
on the book information page?--Makes no sense.
In the past I'd use the short synopses on the "new books" page to determine
whether or not I wanted to do further investigation. But, I'm not going to
bring up a new screen for a book unless I really think I want to read it, as
that could take a long time.
As I said in the beginning, I think the jury is still out on the new
site--they still have problems so I think we should give them time to work
some of those out. I do wish they had asked us what we thought about the
layout before surprising us with it. After all, we might have some ideas of
our own.

I don't like the new bookshare site. I miss the short synopsis appearing on
the browse books page. Why on earth was that taken away.
