Hi Rick, I'll probably not be the first to tell you this, but the copyright
is one of the most important items on BookShare's list of musts be correct!
It is mormally the author but not necessarily. IIt is generally listed on
the inside of the book with the publication information. As a result can
easily be mis-placed or mis-construde. My experience is that it always
says"copyright by so and so and the year date" or the order may be reversed
and give the date first. But regardless it nust and Gustavo will hold
approval of your submission if he is not convinced of it's accuracy.
Publishers as copyright holders is not unusual but should ve verified by a
sighted person and that verification suvmitted with the book. Good Luck Tom
Hawkins

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Step 2 page form questions
On Step 2 page for when going to accept or reject a particular book...
Question 1:
Copyright Name: (is it the author or book name) I've always put book title there. - One book I validated it had the author name - Another had the copyright publisher (MGM) which is correct? Or mabye both? I guess a company like Metro Goldwyn Mayer can own the copyright thus that is what we put?
Question 2:
There is a Help button by these links mentioned above. But on my IE 6, I
get a 2-tone sound from Windows and nothing happens, except that JAWS and
the program loses focus. I figure it is a security setting. Anyone have a
helpful suggestion on how to cause that not to happen? I do have the
Bookshare already set as one of my "Trusted Sites" in IE.
In Today's News:
Just an aside to you other book lovers, some of you may relate to this. In
today's New York Times (Friday, March 3) check out a piece in the Editorial
section.
Observer Yellowing Paper, Stiffening Glue and the Sudden Demise of a
Library. By VERLYN KLINKENBORG
"Some days I suspect that the objects around me are aging faster than I am."
Until downloading a bunch of these national daily newspapers & magazines
from Bookshare, I never really read a lot of them. Thanks, to NFB Newsline
and Bookshare! Such a treasure! I hope someday my local paper will be on
that list.
