Probably some kind of combo box that lets you choose the language you want
to browse books in. That would seem to be a logical method.

Yes, but if books will be coming from all over, how does one browse for new books in his language? Boy, am I a pest, right?

Brenda,
If you're asking about how the Browse Books page will look when they add the
link below, I haven't a clue. They don't seem to do what's logical half the
time, like moving the 3 Browse links to their own page instead of leaving
them on every page or creating a page for a Simple Search then adding that
search to the top of every page so that there's no reason to ever go to the
Simple Search page because it's already on the page you're on. The Tech
Advisors have pointed these things out to them, as well as asked them some
time back to add the two links for browsing new books in either English or
Spanish only to the Browse Books page so everyone can use them.
As for how Bookshare plans to deal with copyright laws in other countries, I
explained that in my reply to Lissi. They're asking publishers for
permission to distribute the books. Copyright law only applies if you copy
something without permission.

Oh, so how do you think it will look when they add that link to the page? If Bookshare goes international, how will Bookshare deal with the various copyright laws in other countries? Just interested.

Brenda,
Bookshare may reside in the U.S., but it has plans to go international, possibly in the next year.
BTW, it's probably a 99+% chance that the link below will be the browsing
new books in English section that you're demanding. It meets all of the
needs, so I doubt Bookshare will spend any Engineering money to develop
another method. We've asked Bookshare to add it to the Browse Books page,
along with the nearly identical link for browsing new books written in
Spanish.

Well that's nice that there's a link, but why can't there be a lbrowsebooksin English section. Last time I checked, this bookshare organization is in
the U.S.
