Hi Patti,
Your message made sense. <smile> I can answer your question about the New
York Times bestsellers. Carrie Karnos does those in the bookshare office.
This is a given.
If you submitted one of this author's books and it was approved, her
publisher must be one that bookshare.org accepts.
I don't have a scanner, but we sure do have some experts on the volunteer
list.
Best wishes,
Sue S.

Hi everyone. I went two nights ago to my church to hear a lady speak, who
actually is from here but has made a name for herself in the Christian
speaking and author circuit, and I believe we do have a couple of her books
on the site, one of which I submitted. It could stand a re submit though
because it was only rated fair. She has a new book coming out next month,
called Slightly Bad Girls of the Bible, which is I think the third of her
Bad Girls series: Bad Girls of the Bible, Really Bad Girls of the Bible,
;and now coming out, Slightly Bad Girls of the Bible. There are many more
books that she has though. Her name is Liz Curtis Higgs. I would
absolutely love to see more of her books on our website. Aside from the
usual scanning and uploading, is there a way to make sure this happens, I am
thinking of the New York Times bestsellers books that are a big part of
Bookshare, how do they get on the site; are they also voluntarily scanned
and uploaded per usual or is it done differently? Would some one have to
contact her publishers to get the permission for all her books to be put up
or would one of you who is terrific at this scanning and uploading be
willing to go to her website which is
www..lizcurtishiggs.com
and find what books she has written and put them up? I could find that
particular info out, what her books are, but I'm not going to volunteer to
put them up because I don't have the best scanner in the world and would
like them to be done as close to perfectly as possible.
I am not sure I'm making sense with all this. But I'd dearly love to see
all her books put up, because she has so much wisdom and knowledge to share
and besides all that she is uproariously funny!
Thanks for listening,
Patti
