Hi Anastasia, Actually since 6/18 (3 weeks ago) there have been 649 books added to the collection. Lots of them are Spanish ones though, as there was a big donation made to include those books. Gustavo is currently handling BookShare.org administrative approvals. Keep in mind that this last week and this week the staff have been/are attending the NFB and ACB national conventions. This throws a kink in the approvals to a certain extent. Expect them to pick back up to the normal speed in another week or two. Yes, there are a few other language items on the site, some German I believe, very few though. I wouldn't expect to see any other languages get added to the combo boxes other than English/Spanish for a while though.

I think the bigger question is why hasn't bookshare ganed anymore books in 3 weeks. How often are bookse added? I see the new list of books for approval every day there are between 2 and 20 new books. why haven't I seen them on the site? How many people are actually invololved in that last step? Also I asked this question of either this lisst or the volunteer one but I would really like to know if there are any books on the siite that are in another language other than spanish and englist. German for example. my o c r recognnizes more than just English and Spanish. Anyone know the answer to my question?
