[bksvol-discuss] Re: I thought we could not submit plays

Elizabeth,

I believe you'll find Bookshare's not being able to accept plays mentioned
on the About Submitting web page.

From what I remember, too, the copyright law that makes Bookshare possible
only allows for distribution of copyrighted nondramatic literary works, so
you should look under the legal info if you want to know where the
prohibition originates.

Of course, plays which aren't copyrighted would be fair game since copyright
law wouldn't apply to them.

HTH

Gerald

If we cannot submit plays, where does it state that on bookshare?  If we 
can submit them under specific circumstances, what are those 
circumstances?  I notice Glengarry Glen Ross has been submitted.  Unless I 
am misstaken, this is a play.
