Hi Gwen,
If you choose the "advanced search" link on the home page, or any other
bookshare page, you will then be able to find edit fields for title, author
and some other stuff. If you want an author, for instance, find the author
field, and in there, type the author first name first, and last name last
like this, Carolyn Keene. Then hit enter on the "search" button. That is,
I think, easier, and narrows your results to exactly what you want. If you
want a particular title, type the title you want in the edit field labeled
title and hit the search button. You can, if you want to, fill out more than
one field to narrow your results even more.
Hope that helps.
Mayrie

Thanks a million for this information. I usually go down to the search
option and put either author or book. But then not only does give me the
book author or title I seek, but there are loads of other ones I never
searched for. So I know I have to learn to narrow my search field.

It can be very confusing, Gwen. There are several places to look. The first
is Cindy's list of books being scanned. The link is not always updated so
you have to try to find the most recent one she emailed.
The second is the books ready for checkout page, which can sometimes span as
many as 4 or 5 pages if you set your view to 100 per page.
The third is books in progress which includes a page (or several pages) of
books people are working on, then a page or two of books waiting for
approval from Carrie and then a third section for books recently rejected.
Then there is the outsourced books page which when I went to it today said
page not found so hopefully they were just updating the list today when I
tried it.
I just tried it again at
https://wiki.benetech.org/download/attachments/17268805/0322.txt and still
got no list so maybe it takes a while.
