Hi Scott,
There is a book I would love too see in the collection. It is Oxygen by
Carol Cassella. What is odd is that the follow-up book, The Healer, or
maybe just Healer, has been submitted by bookshare staff as a PQ book. So
why do they not submit the first one, Oxygen? It was a bestseller, and of
course no one would want to scan it because Simon and Schuster is the
publisher. Can someone request it from them, please?
Thanks,
Sue S.

The question is what is *not* in the collection that would be popular with
specific potential members that you know.

I think the best way to tell what readers are reading is to look at the
"most popular books". My guess is that members read the same thing that
nonmembers read (if they can get a hold of it).
