When I am searching on Bookshare, how do I find publisher quality books?

Sorry it took me a while to reply to this. You ask a good question.
Publisher quality books are books that are donated to Bookshare by
publishers. They are especially good quality so they have their own quality
rating. The publishers send us the digital file and we convert it into
Daisy and BRF. Or at least we're working on the BRF. <smile>. Recently,
HarperCollins Publishers donated more than 500 books to the Bookshare
collection. Some of those are already up on the site and the others should
be joining them soon.
I hope this has answered your question.
Best,
Allison
