NOTE: Could the below titles possibly be added to the wish list?  Thank you.

Hi, Chanelle.  Oh yes indeed.  There are many books on politics,
particularly from a conservative point-of-view, that I would love to see
added to the collection.  I'm glad to see all topics available for reading
on Bookshare, but conservatives could use some expansion to b certain.
There are some books covering this subject-matter, but they are few and far
between.  I gather most of them have only made it into the collection in the
first place because they made it on the NYT best seller list at one point,
(i.e. Ann Coulter, etc).  More choices are truly needed that comprise
conservative thought for a better rounded reading selection for all.

Since I have the floor, LOL, Some of my own personal wish list choices would
be:

10 Books That Screwed Up the World: And 5 Others That Didn't Help by
Benjamin Wiker.

Invasion by Michelle Malkin.

In Defense of Internment by Michelle Malkin.

Stealing Elections, Revised and Updated: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our
Democracy by  John Fund.

The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Constitution by Kevin Gutzman.

Conservative Comebacks to Liberal Lies by Gregg Jackson.

The REALLY Inconvenient Truths: Seven Environmental Catastrophes Liberals
Don't Want You to Know About (Because They Helped Cause Them) by Iain
Murray.

The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History by Thomas E. Woods, Jr.

In the Words of Our Enemies by Jed Babbin.

More Guns, Less Crime by John Lott.

And the list goes on.  Thank you very much for asking about this.  There are
so many types of books I'd like to read but I can't since they aren't
available on Bookshare.  We need more scanners who are willing to submit
books of this nature, and the effort wouldn't go unappreciated.

Is there a demand for more books on certain subject matters for Bookshare?
It would be great to grow the collection, and I am interested in scanning. I
would just like to provide books that would be useful. I guess I could start
by checking out the wish list. :)
