Rik,

What Chela gave you is the link to new books that John Immarino sends out 
every day.  It appears that is not what you are asking.

Thanks, Chela.

But is this page a page of approved books into the collection?
That is what it seems to be.

Is it only by looking through the multiple pages of books ready to checkout
that I may find out whether the book is being scanned or has been scanned
and awaiting approval?

I have not yet begun the scan.
And just wanted to know if it the book  is in process with another volunteer
at Bookshare.

Amber had posted a page as a reply, but I was not sure what that was either.
it seemed like it was an announcement of the book's new publication.

Sorry to be so dense here.
My computer and I are barely speaking.
Maybe it is the 25 below zero temperature.
Maybe it is the temperamental nature of my old computer.
Or maybe it is that I need to go back to my cave and teach school!  (smile)

I repeat.
Have copy. Will scan, if not already being done, this book.
