[blindlaw] book share

[Peter Donahue]

Hello Angie and listers,

One way they can divide their categories is by language. While I respect the
rights of bookshare subscribers to read material in their native language
mucking through 20+ Spanish titles before finding an English title gets a
little old after while. I for one would appreciate it if they would divide
their selections by language as well as by subject.

Hi Scott,

I don't know any numbers, but there are definitely texts out there. If I
scan any of my own texts (and that's looking very
likely), I will be submitting those. The student can search Bookshare
without being a member. Unfortunately,
Bookshare's categories are not well divided. but currently, there are 1066
books in the "text books and educational
materials" category.

Some offerings include Black's Law Dictionary, several books on criminal
law, some torts stuff, some contracts books,
and others. These are just the ones I have recently looked for.
