Hi all,

Oh, c'mon, Gary, this whole discussion which BTW, has been going on sporatically for the past several months, was started precisely because we want to have everyone getting the best books they can. So, that starts with scanners. Scanners need help to scan well. Then it goes to validators. Validators need encouragement to reject bad scans so that they can be rescanned.

Actually, Gary, old friend, if you find a book that is of poor quality on Bookshare, and you scan it so that you can read it, why not submit a BSO? That way the book gets replaced, more people can read it, and you get credit for the scan.

Ann P.
