Hi Roger!Thanks for telling us about Project Gutenberg's procedure being like Bookshare's. It's things like this we need to know.

As a matter of fact, that is how Project Gutenberg does it too, so if you have a valuable or collectible book, for goodness sake, don't send it to either organization."I have no country to fight for; my country is the earth, and I am a citizen of the world."

As I understand it, they remove the covers and chop the books so the pages can be fed through a document-reader-type scanner. I think that's why people might send them a lot of paperback books. (Pavi, please correct me if I'm wrong about this one. I suppose you do the same with hardback books.)
