Hello friends and fellow Booksharians!
I have not been scanning and submitting too many books lately.
My last scan of a book is still in the process, and I think it was like late
February.
Arthur Koestler’s book, Ghost In the Machine.
I have no idea what is up with it in the process. Multiple checkouts,
expirations, is what I read last time I checked.
Anyway, I have switched most of my scanning time to scanning my large
collection of magazines that are not in any electronic library that I have
found.
I do have a large to be scanned pile. So stay tuned.
Anyway, here is why I post this today…
I have a book that was published here in my state, that after I scanned it and
made all the corrections and put it my preferred Daisy format for good reading
navigation, I find that the book does NOT have an ISBN number. It is published
by a radio station. It is in its 2nd printing.
Is it worth me submitting for Bookshare approval?
Here is an interesting twist, however:
I was given this copy by the author, Lonnie Bell.
I searched for it on Amazon, where it is not available.
But the Product Description actually DOES INDEED list an ISBN number.
Slidin' Along with Lonnie Bell A personal history of the roots of Country Music

It is a pretty interesting book, to me at least, a biography of a country music
radio host, who is in the Country Music DJ Hall of Fame and will be of the ripe
young age of 92 on July 31!
It has lots of radio and country music history to it.
I think others may well enjoy it.
But I’m not sure if it could be met with approval.
Thanks.
