Where? I follow this closely & the Potter fansites, podcasts etc and have never once heard this from her or reps. I've read people here on MR say it but never anywhere else. Where have you heard this 'reported'? |

Just read it on MR. No idea what the source is nor am I aware of its validity.

Don't know if this is posted elsewhere, but I just put all 7 of the Harry Potter books on hold in my library. Says they will be available April 30.
![]() ![]() I assume other libraries have them now as well? |

My library appears to have bought 28 copies of each of them. About 25 still available.
My son just put 4 on hold. He should be getting them the week they come out. As an ethical parent, I would never use my son's card to obtain for myself more than the allowed number of holds at the library unless he wasn't using it for ebooks |

This may be the source of the rumor:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/0..._n_882754.html Rowling has suggested that she might make some other Harry Potter related book that might have the proceeds donated to charity. That's a lot of 'mights'. ![]() |

They're talking about the long-awaited, much hoped for, Harry Potter bible/encyclopedia/anthology/lexicon whatever you want to call it that she's talked about working on for about ten years now. All the Potter sites talk about it & hope for it one day to become a reality but absolutely nowhere does she or her reps or publishers say proceeds from the sale of the 7 Potter series ebooks or audiobooks, which have been around for years, are going to charity. It's just not true! Sorry. "There may yet be another Potter book – a long-anticipated encyclopedia. Rowling said she was still considering compiling one, with the proceeds going to charity. "Will there ever be an encyclopedia?" Rowling said. "Possibly."" |

It's just misinformation that's been requoted all over the place on the net but none of it is true. An awful lot of folks, myself included, with the black Sony T1 have a sticker in the top right corner covering the info on the coupon that was to be included in the box for the free first book in the series - Harry Potter & the Sorcerer's Stone. Since Pottermore & the sales of the ebooks got delayed, Sony had to recall the units to open them to remove the coupon, JKR's letter & put the sticker overtop of the Pottermore info on the box. That's why the sale of the T1 itself got delayed. |

I've got the first four checked out. My library has 22 copies and there were between 14-18 still available.

I was going to get really mad if your library already put them out when mine hasn't even looked into obtaining them.
