I have a wish list submission. It is a book called "voices of the game," about the voices that brought major league baseball to us throughout the twentieth century. It is available from NLS (not yet digital that I know), but is getting rather ancient, :) eighties I think, and it should be preserved. I've forgotten the author's name, but a recent Harry Karay book that was just submitted and discussed on this list, (an excellent scan by the way), mentioned that was one of the sources of the material for the "Harry" book. I wish to read it and have it for reference. Thanks!

RhodesHey Wes, That is as you have noticed one of the beautiful things about Bookshare. There is no censorship, budgetary descions pertaining to which books would be appropriate. If someone requests it, and someone wants to scan it, it gets added to the site. Smile. And I love that! Shelley L.

I'm one of those who prefers to read Braille, and to do so on my PACMate, but NLS has only done the Davenport/Prey books in braille, and I'm not a huge fan of using cassettes anymore. :-) -----Original Message----- From: Bob [mailto:rwiley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2008 9:28 AM To: bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookshare-discuss] Re: Whishlist Submission You dun good Wes. I'll second your first suggestion, the John Sanford book: I read everything I can by him. If someone will scan it, I'll validate it. Though if it just came out, it may make the New York times best sellers soon, and Carrie will scan it in house. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wes Derby" <ufofanatic@xxxxxxxxx> To: <bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2008 11:23 AM Subject: [bookshare-discuss] Whishlist Submission > Hello.
