Oliver Sacks has to be on my all-time wishlist for a Legacy Library. I don't think there's a list out there just yet, but Bill Hayes has shared quite a lot this week on Twitter. https://twitter.com/BillHayesNYC/status/1032729651112763393

Ah yes, sorry all, I meant to update earlier to say I've written to Ian to ask about this one, and will keep this thread posted!

Yeah, Ian told me when I wrote that he's keeping a list of everything, so eventually at least we should be able to get an LL out of this - I don't know exactly when, though, and whether he wants to market them first, &c. Will check back with him and see!
