Is there not a list somewhere with the Bookshare publishers? Can it be
downloaded if there is, and how?

There have been some additions to the publishers that have signed on
with Bookshare since December, but I suppose it is better than nothing.
As for the "safe" publishers, after thinking about it I tend to think
that is not of much use. There are a huge number of publishers out there
that none of us have ever heard of and that includes publishers that no
longer exist. There is probably no way to compile all of them. There
might be some reference book out there with them. That sounds like a
book that some obscure publisher might have published at one time or
another, but if there is it would likely be out of date too. It would be
a huge job to compile such a list. It makes a lot more sense to just
have a list of publishers, including all imprints. Then if a publisher
is not on the list it can be assumed that it is a "safe" publisher.
