Hi,
As a validator, I don't mind working on a book that the submitter hasn't
read all the way through. I read the book through myself, so it's not
necessary that we both do so. However, if one doesn't read through the
whole book before submitting, I appreciate that the scanner put his/her
E-mail address in the comments field on the submission form. That is
important to me. That way, if I do encounter an issue in the scanned book,
I
can write the submitter and get the problem worked out.
BTW, I think it's great that some individuals are willing to scan books that
aren't interesting to them personally.
Best,
Allison

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] editing books you are not necessarily interested
in reading
How do those of you who scan books for the wish list for example, but you
might not be interested in reading yourself, how do you make the copy as
good as you possibly can? So far, I have been removing page headers, and
protecting chapter and page headings, but since I want a really good copy,
should I just read through the books even if they don't necessarily interest
me? If this helps, I have access to Kurzweil, and MS word as well as a
Braille display for reading. I am also running windows XP Home.
Thanks.
