Hi Bud,
There might be a couple of reasons you are having so much trouble. Maybe.
1. Use a keyword of the title, not the title itself. For example,
it could be L.A. or LA or L A and all three of these are different
according to the search tools.
Also
are you logged in, and do you have show adult content? Could these
be Adult.I k
now on the old site, I allowed adult content, when I started using
the new site I found that I no longer did have that privilage, so
needed to change it in my account.
Beyond that. These are the things that usually work for me.
I usually use last name of the author, plus first name.

rather they thought of it as an act of divinely mandated righteousness.

committed. -Gil Bailie, author and lecturer (b. 1944)

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: trying to find if a book is in the list
Hello everyone!
Hopefully this information will help others with the scanning
process. I just put L.A. Outlaws into the edit box for finding a
book on bookshare's website and it's all ready been scanned and was
submitted to the collection on May, 27, 2008. I'd just try putting
in his name in the edit box to check on the list of books all ready
in the collection. I don't know why you would be having so many
issues with the site but I hope this helps. Bud if you do scan
anymore of his works then I'd be happy to validate them for you.
Again I hope this information helps and let's hope you will be able
to scan something soon that isn't in the collection. Take care
everyone and I hope that everyone is having a spectacular evening!
Kristin

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] trying to find if a book is in the list
Hi Gang,
I don't know why, but the new site sure is hard to find if a book
is there or not. I'm trying to find if L.A. Outlaws by T
Jefferson Parker is there. I'm going to scan it and suspect that
it is already there. In fact I'm sure that there are a number of
T Jefferson Parker's books are there but I can't even bring
anything up with his name. I'm afraid to go ahead and scan and
clean up the book without being sure it isn't there. Any ideas as
to why I am having so much trouble
Thanks.?
