Don't forget to always leave a note in the comments field for the proofreader to remove the adult designation. Also, when I download a book from the collection that happens to be marked adult I make a quality report asking that the designation be removed.

Some books get marked as adult because the proofreader finds the material to be very sensitive. I only mark books adult if they are sexually graphic butoften Bookshare takes and marks my books adult for me. I find the PennyWarner books about the small town newspaper reporter who is deaf always getmarked adult because she is fond of the f word. Her sex scenes are alwaysvery very very bland so it isn't the few and far between sex scenes, it hasto be her colorful language.I've scanned many other books which Bookshare automatically marked adult andas the scanner I cannot unmark it. Only the proofreader can do it. I'm told that many Elie Weisel books are now required reading in high schools these days so probably Bookshare should be made aware of the situation so they can assess it. -- Jamie in Michigan Currently Reading: Carved in Bone by Jefferson Bass Earn cash for answering trivia questions every 3 hours: http://instantcashsweepstakes.com/invitations/ref_link/49497 See everything I've read this year at: www.michiganrxtech.com/books.html
