Hi, Tina!
Judy or someone else can reply if my information is not current. It is my
understanding that any personal requests that are not educationally related are
very unlikely to be processed; the wish list is better suited to that.
Additionally, when Bookshare processes books with their high-speed scanner, the
books are destroyed because they remove the spines and sheet feed the pages.
HTH!

I just sent in my first book request. I mentioned on line about scanning and
they said I guess you can also request books, I am just wondering if anyone
of you have done that and how it typically took to see the book in the
collection? Also, does this mean bookshare still has the high speed scanners
in house/ ? I asked a few years ago now, about being able to send in print
books to be scanned and was told that was no longer an option, something
about there not being enough space for them,. so, how do the requests work?
If bookshare scans the books, do they then just pass on the print books once
they're no longer needed?
