Thanks, Deborah, I had no idea. I've done several TOR books over the past few years thinking that they hadn't signed.
Still, knowing that they actually have signed makes buying any TOR book more of a gamble than I had thought. One can never know when they might start sending in books. I really do want to read A Memory of Light as soon as it comes out though. I'll need to consider....

Hi Evan,Actually, there are 3 PQ books from Tor Books on BookShare. All 3 are by thesame author--Jeffrey A. Carver--and were submitted in 9/2010. Given that there have been no more since then, you all are probably fine adding this one to the collection. Just pointing out that, at some point, Tor Books has signed the agreement with BookShare.

So,unless they've changed their policies, or A Memory of Light is being published by someone else, they won't give that one to Bookshare either.I waited for over a month for Towers to appear, thinking that because itwas a bestseller, Bookshare would get it fairly quickly. Then I bought a copy, scanned and read through it, submitted it, and Christina proofed it. Our copy is still up there.I'll check the publisher ... okay, AMOL is being published by TOR, whichwas the publisher of Towers. Unless they've changed their minds recently,TOR does not send books to Bookshare. Rather than wait around for who knowshow long to see if Bookshare will do the book in-house, I'm thinking of preordering AMOL and then I'll have it as soon as it's published. It's due for release on January 8.Evan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marcus W" <mdw2008@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2012 10:57 AM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: In memory of lightA question and some info.Are you referring to A Memory of Light, the final book in Robert Jordan'sWheel of Time series?If so, only the hardcover and aubio is scheduled for a January release.The ebook isn't due out until April, that is unless the publisher gives Bookshare a jump on the general public.we decide who gets to proof it?
