Partial series bug me too, Kim. I ask other volunteers if they can get
the missing books from their libraries and scan them, since I can't
scan, and I do the proofreading since that is something I can do. If no
one can help out on a particular set of books, I haunt
http://www.abebooks.com and http://www.alibris.com and
http://www.biblio.com and http://www.half.com and http://www.amazon.com
and ebay until used copies come up dirt cheap, and then I snap those up
and send them in to bookshare to get scanned. It often takes many months
for them to get scanned when you send them directly to Bookshare, but I
know they'll get in the collection eventually that way. I also put books
on the wishlist, but if they haven't been taken in 3 months then they
usually aren't going to get done that way.

Hi, I don't know about you, but it bugs me to see books in a partially
completed series. I think it's due to my being inclined toward the
resolution of anything. I'm a musician and if I hear a G7 chord, I
naturally think there should be a C chord to finish it off (I prefer
consonance over dissonance any day). I mention this because I was
looking at the Bookshare collection at books by one Beverly Swerling's
historical fiction series about New York City and books 2-4 are in the
collection. Does anyone know if City of Dreams (book one of the series)
will be added or not? Regards, Kim Friedman.
