The reason I like John's site is that it doesn't include the Nemac books that I can't download anyway, And I can skip the children's books. Rarely will I ever read the children's books, and at times, there are very large numbers of them added, which makes it fast for me to go through. Different strokes for different folks, I suppose.

I know that many of you really like John's site and even if it has been quite some time now I have checked it out a number of times myself, but, frankly, the newly added list on the Bookshare site seems to me to be more useful. If you want the advantage of the new books being categorized then you can do a category search on Bookshare and order them by most recently added._ _ _ "Capitalism is war; socialism is peace." - Karl Liebnecht Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/rogerbailey81 The Militant: http://www.themilitant.com Pathfinder Press: http://www.pathfinderpress.com Granma International: http://www.granma.cu/ingles/index.html----- Original Message ----- From: "Courtney Stover" <liamskitten@xxxxxxxxx>To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, November 20, 2010 3:34 PMSubject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: e: Now John's site, was Re: I really really wish you guys would take my suggestionHi all: I really think this URL needs to be somewhere on the bookshare site; I've posted the link over and over and it doesn't seem to get archived by most people on the list; I'm not criticizing, just making a point *smile* Maybe the complaint about book limits wouldn't come up so much if the URL were more widely known about. Posting this on the site would also help volunteers who aren't on the list. Courtney P.S.: I'm not feeling well, so I'm sorry if this E-mail came across in any way as snappish.

I love bookshare but if there was one thing I would change itwould be this.I know for a fact that I can not read 300 books a month so thatis not theproblem I am having. The situation is this. New books are posted up there and I am not complaining as I thinkit isawesome but sometimes in the hundreds per day. The only way one can keep track so that they can come back todownload bookslaterr once the limitatoins are reached and I have had my limitset to 300is that you have to keep writing stuff down and coming back totry and getit. I keep saying that there should be a price plan on bookshare thatif peoplewant to be able to get more books they should have to pay moreper month tomake this happen. I guess where I don't quite get it is that NLS's site you don'tpay for itat all the books are tons bigger and there is not one limitplaced on howmany you can get and it is free to all of us who qualify. I am simply saying let those of us who want more bookshare bookspay moremoney to get more books. What are your thoughts.
