Dee,
My list is mailed out to (111) individuals nightly. I'll add you to my mailing
list. smile.
What I do is go the the Browse New Books, copy that, edit it to eliminate
duplicate lines, like Language: English, provide asterisks to make navigation
easy; indicate fiction or nonfiction or age categories if the books are for
younger members; and exclude NIMAC books which are only for students in grades
K-12. BTW, These are English-language only books, though I suppose if books in
a foreign language are added I could now include them separately. I won't
bother with the reason the list originated, but it was needed at one time and
since then people find it convenient not to have to check the Browse New Books
if they are busy or out of town.
