submissions


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.
