No, it's not against policy. I can't imagine why it would be. Frankly, I don't think I've gotten a book from NLS in quite some time. Maybe a year or longer, because Bookshare has far better selection, and far more timely. _____ From: bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Curtis Delzer Sent: Friday, March 07, 2008 3:51 PM To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: No advance reading copies allowed Hey, that reminds me, aren't there many books on bookshare which are also a part of the NLS collection? Isn't that against policy?

Advance reading copies of books are distributed to various people before publication, with the proviso that the copies not be given to anyone else. If someone mails or submits an advance reading copy to Bookshare, someone somewhere has broken an agreement and we cannot be party to that. So please do not mail us advance reading copies of books or submit them to the download list. They won't be put into the collection. Just a gentle reminder, Carrie _____ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile.
