Hi, the new Bookshare site is up. I'm now perusing the new books section and
have downloaded some stuff successfully. The thing which is interesting
about the site is if you are a member, the first thing you encounter after
logging in is something called My Bookshare. Under that link I see the link
for the Volunteer Home web site because I sometimes proofread books for
Bookshare and it's very convenient to get to it from My Bookshare. The only
thing which I don't see is that taskbar with my name on it (which never did
a thing anyway). If one wishes to look at new books, I think so far going to
the browse function is probably quicker because from there you can find the
New Books section, check your combo boxes for the settings you like and go
from there. The site seems navigable and very streamlined. I don't really
have any objections to the new site but I liked the other one before the
change. I suppose the folks wanted things to look tidy and they thought the
older site looked cluttered from the design point of view. That is the only
reason I can figure out why the folks wished to modify or change the site.
Regards, Kim Friedman.
