Hi Cindy, thanks for bringing me up to date on the new books question. I must confess I've been off the list for some time, but came back on just in the past few days. Not sure if the "power that be" monitor the list, but it really might be useful to add a combo box to choose language in book searches and that could include new books also. Just a thought. I plan to stay on the list, so your postings to the list will be a real help. Thanks, Don On Fri, 7 Jul 2006 14:24:51 -0700 (PDT), Cindy wrote: Don, The New Books one can access from the Browse Books on the volunteer page show, usually a day late because of the difference between California time and the rest of the country. So it will show whatever Gustavo put in that day, be it English-language of Spanish-language books. Jake has been able to get, instantly, a list of books added, and he's divided the lists into English-language and Spanish-language. Each night I check his list, with his permission, and post to both the bookshare and volunteer lists the English-language books that have been added to the collection each day that there are any. Yesterday there was only one. In case you missed it, below is the list of books added yesterday--only one--and the day before. If you don't check the bookshare list on a daily basis and want me to e-mail you the list it's no extra trouble for me and I'll be happy to. Cindy P.S. Also, below the list, is the tiny URL to Jake's list, which has, I beleive, 100 of the newest books, whereas I only post each day's additions. Cindy The King of California: J. G.
