Hi Gerald and Donna,
I've been following the list, skimming parts as of late due to the work
load this semester is putting on me.
When Tony first posted the original link, I did some expanding on it and
put what I found up on the web direct at:
http://www.jbrownell.com/bkslinks.html
I tried playing with the search string to make it all books, but couldn't
figure it out. I played with it for something like 20 minutes again tonight
with little success. language=0 is the code for not filtering languages, but
the system doesn't like it if quality=0 at the same time. quality=0
specifies that all book ratings should be included. I tried various settings
throughout, like empty strings, excluding that condition, setting them to
null, etc.. Then for some crazy reason I just deleted everything that came
after the sort=4 attribute. Well, I'll be da**ed if it didn't work. I'll
definitely be remembering this trick for future use.
So here's the link to sort all books of any language, any quality rating by
most recent publication date in the BookShare system.
http://www.bookshare.org/web/BooksByAdvancedSearch.html?titlestring=&authorstring=&sort=4
Donna,
Ask Jake. He should be able to tailor a search string for you to do both, or you can just use his link for the Spanish books.
Check out his site at www.jbrownell.com

Hi Mike,
That's handy. Do you know how one might set that up so as *not to eliminate all nonEnglish books?

I have the following link bookmarked which will work once you have logged into BookShare:
new bookshare books
http://www.bookshare.org/web/BooksByAdvancedSearch.html?titlestring=&authors tring=&sort=4&submit=Search+Now&language=en&quality=0&category%5B%5D=0&opera tion=submit
What I like about this generated report, whose link Jake created on his website, is that it eliminates all non-English books from the listing and goes beyond the latest 100 titles.
