Thanks. I found a Wikipedia article about the key and sent it to the folks at Bookshare, their engineers are looking at it now. Basically, it’s a four leaf clover, but it shows up blank in their books so it’s hard to tell if they mean shift option key or shift option command key.

Easiest thing is probably to copy it from somewhere else. Here is one I found: ⌘ Which for me reads something sounding like "Mahkgo", whatever that is. In html it can be represented by: ⌘ Some sites said to just hunt through the Special Characters palette from the Edit menu and search for Place of Interest. Once you do that you'll have to navigate to the Character Sections Table and then Characters after the Unicode Name label. Interact with that and then you can VO-shift-m to bring up a contextual menu to copy the character info. If you paste that it will give you three lines, the first being the actual symbol followed by some info about it like this: ⌘ PLACE OF INTEREST SIGN Unicode: U+2318, UTF-8: E2 8C 98 Another site said this Applescript will present the symbol in a dialog that you can copy from. display dialog «data utxt2318» as Unicode text. I'm not an Applescripter so I can't verify that one. Nowhere did somebody seem to have some kind of raptor-claw-shift-tilde-option-something key combo to just type the silly thing.

Every Bookshare book about macs has a blank space where this should be, and I want to show them what I mean by the image so hopefully they can fix the problem ongoing. Thanks.
