I had checked out Bookshare a while back - and based on this I looked at their web site again. Unfortunately, they do not have a way to search by publisher. I chose to do a title search for words, such as DNS Sendmail Linux Nothing for the first 2 - and the third only had 2 or 3, and I don't believe any of them were O'Reilly's. If they have a lot of O'Reilly books they seem to be doing a good job of hiding them from me? Any suggestions on a better way to find their books? Does Bookshare have any other technical computer publisher on board? Thanks Debbie
