[bksvol-discuss] Re: BSO files

Sue,

 

Gustavo did ask us to put BSO at the beginning of the title and to leave it
there when uploading after validation, but it was Rui who notified the list
of Gustavo's wishes.

 

The current staff also expects us to continue with this practice.

It seems I recall a posting from Gustavo telling us to put BSO- before the
title so he would know it is a replacement.  Is this correct?

Once I tried not to include the BSO in the file name and the book was not
accepted. Therefore, I resubmitted it with the BSO in the file name and then
wrote to John to have the staff take it out.

I agree with Lisa. In fact, I have a couple of books in the catalog with 
BSO in front of the title because that was the way I had it in the file name
