Hi David,
I'm only aware of three places on the Bookshare site where you'd be able to see
books not yet in the collection. They are:
1. Proofread a book. This is what we call the checkout list and it's a list of
books that someone has submitted but have yet to be proofread.
https://catalog. bookshare.org/bookQueueAvailable
2. Books in Process. This is where you'd find the titles that are currently in
the process of being proofread.
https://catalog.bookshare.org/bookQueueProcessing
3. Awaiting Approval. The approval queue is where books end up after they are
proofread but not yet approved for the collection. They may still need more
proofing at this point.
https://catalog.bookshare.org/bookQueueProcessing?type=waiting
None of these pages on the site will be available to someone who is not a
volunteer for Bookshare (as opposed to being just a member).
They are also only going to contain volunteer-prepared books--nothing from
outsourcers or publishers.
If you're talking about something else, I'm not aware of it, and I've been a
volunteer with Bookshare since the beginning.
If this isn't what you're looking for, I hope someone else can help you.
Deborah

Subject: [bookshare-discuss] Question: Books Coming Soon to Bookshare
Hi. A long time ago I remember being able to access a page with books
which were in the process of being prepared for Bookshare but which were
not actually ready for download. I can't now recall where this was,
whether it was on the Bookshare main site or on the Uservoice page and
Google searches haven't turned it up. Does anyone know or remember where
this was located?
