Hi Gerald and Matthew.
The "All Books on BookShare.org" link will only work for the first page
of results for some reason. So, yes, using this link the most you can get is
50 books. This is the reason why that option is toward the bottom of the
list. It was only included because of a request from a fellow user.
Using the "English books sorted by most recent publication date" will
get you a new books listing for the English language. Most people aren't
interested in Spanish titles and so this is a nice built-in filter. And, if
you do want to see the latest Spanish, simply use the corresponding link
provided.
HTH,
Jake

Anyone else having the problem mentioned in the message below? I've never had any problems moving to the next page using Jake's link myself.
There does seem to be a problem moving to another page when you enter an author string, though. Jake and I have both reported that bug.
BTW, Matthew, the Publication Date option in the Sort Order combo box lists
books by publication date, but it lists the earliest books first. Jake's
link uses a different value for the sort value in the call to Advanced
Search which causes the books to be listed by Publication date but in
reverse order, or the most recent books first. The Sort Order combo box
doesn't support this option.

Hello, I'm confused as to the method of looking for the latest books. You
get books when you click on latest 100 books, and then I clicked on the link
on Jake's site:
http://www.bookshare.org/web/BooksByAdvancedSearch.html?titlestring=&authors
tring=&sort=4
and that works fine for fifty books, but as soon as I click on 51 to 99, it
brings back the search page to type in book info. If I set the filter to
english and publication date, it brings up another list which doesn't match
the latest books. Any help?
Thanks a lot.
Matthew
