Karen,

If it is going to be sold via Amazon, GNOME might want to look into
the Amazon non-profit affiliates program.  I believe Brad Kuhn / Tony
Sebro of SFC recently went through registering SFC (and member
projects) that wanted to earn click-through donations from purchases
of project-related books, they could probably tell you more about it.
