There are good points to both approaches.
That's how I got into scanning, actually. I kept finding books I wanted to put
on the wishlist. I decided the best way to get them on Bookshare was to do
them myself so, I did. *Smile*
I was luckily in a position financially at the time to buy a scanner and OCR
and I had the time to learn it.
It's not for everyone though. Any contributions, be they time or book
donations, are always appreciated.

Hi, Christina, I'm glad you're pleased. Roger has said in his way that if I
really wanted to make Bookshare happy, I'd buy stuff on the wish list. Mind
you, I certainly don't disagree with what he has to say, but I'd also state
that what is so wonderful about Bookshare are those delightful books we feel
like acquiring and sharing with others. I think what I can do is if there are
synopses proposed for books on the wish list, at least I'd know what I'm
getting for Bookshare. Understand, me, I'm not at all put out by that remark,
for I know it was meant to be helpful. Regards, Kim.

Hiya, Kim.
Thanks for sending these books to Bookshare.
For future reference, if it's an Urban fantasy like the Katie Macalister
book, I'll probably be willing to scan it. *Smile*

If they are fruity tootsie rolls they wouldn't last long here! Those are my
favorite! When I was dropping candy in a little kid's bag last night I saw some
and I wanted to say trade me your fruity tootise rolls for my Reeses!
Ok back to scanning. Well, maybe I need a Hershey bar.
