This reminds me of something though. I asked this once before and never got 
an answer, so now that the subject of magazines is up I will ask it again. 
There is a publication called New International. It calls itself a magazine, 
but it is not like other magazines in the least. It is not published on a 
regular basis. Issues may be published a few months apart or even a few years 
apart. It consists of various articles of a political nature and it is 
apparently published only when a sufficient number of suitable articles are 
accumulated to justify a new issue. The articles are usually referent to 
current 
affairs, but since they are also theoretical in nature they are not easily 
dated and can even be thought of as articles on historical topics. The 
publication has the appearance of a trade paperback book and the title of the 
lead article is usually prominent across the cover with the name New 
International in the background both on the cover and the title page as if New 
International was the name of a series. In virtually every way it is an 
anthology 
published in the form of a trade paperback book except that it calls itself a 
magazine and its publisher calls it a magazine or a journal. My question is 
whether this would be suitable for Bookshare. Because it is officially a 
magazine I doubt it, but I wanted to ask because anyone just looking at it 
would probably call it a book and I could imagine it being accidentally scanned 
for Bookshare as a book.

Bob,

there is a quick link on Bookshare for periodicals and you can look up the 
newspapers and magazines it does carry. The number of magazines is very 
small.
However, there are a number of newspapers.

I'm pretty sure I've seen somewhere that bookshare doesn't do periodicals.

I have looked on Bookshare to see if Guideposts or Reader's Digest 
available, and they are not. Valerie said she would be interested in scanning 
them 
depending
on what is necessary to have these magazines scanned and listed on 
Bookshare. Do the magazines have to give permission? Also, would you have to 
scan 
all
of the advertisements?
