Hey Joanie,
    I have no idea what is going on with the new books page. There's been
some trouble in the past with it. I would suggest using the following URL to
check out new books. It's using the advanced search feature and needs to run
a query on the BookShare database, and will take a while longer to load
because it isn't a static page...

http://www.bookshare.org/web/BooksByAdvancedSearch.html?titlestring=&authorstring=&sort=4&language=en&quality=0&category%5B%5D=0&operation=submit&submit=Search

It will display English books sorted by most recent publication date.

You can find some other handy links that use the Advanced Search feature on
my website at:

HTH,
