My understanding is if the book is available in electronic text it can't be
on bookshare, smile, the electronic text that is, but the book itself can.
And of course no dramatic works.
But everything else is fair game. Oh, yes, one more exception. If the book
is owned and published by the American Printing House for the Blind, they
have their own lovely copyright exemption.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Books Aproved on Bookshare
Hello Everyone:
How does Bookshare determine what books are approved for the site? I
thought I read something along the lines that if a book is found in another
alternative media with another organization that they cannot be approved
through bookshare. I was looking on NLS web braille and see many from Norah
Roberts which are also on Bookshare. Would someone please clarify this for
me?
Thank You,
Sharon
