What determines adult content is ultimately the proofreader. Bookshare's computer can mark a book either Adult or not, using some secret algorithm that staff refuses to divulge to us, but the proofreader can change the Bookshare computer's choice if he/she feels that a change is justified. It used to be either the submitter and/or the proofreader, but Bookshare took that choice away from submitters and seems to have no inclination to give it back.

But I still have a further question. Please don't misunderstand me. I am not! saying this is right or wrong nor telling anyone what is good or not good to read That I want to make clear right off the bat. But my husband and I read totally different books thus scan totally different books. His books that he scans and reads not saying they all do again don't misunderstand, but I know for a fact that this every wish fullfilled that he just got put up it has explicit descriptions and language but I can find it in my books even though I've said I want no adult content what if a minor got hold of this book it says no adult content so going by that anyone can read this book including my grand kids who are pre schoolers and stuff. What determines adult content I'm not saying it's good or bad but I'll be doggone if I want to go into a book and find things I don't want to unexpected, most of y'all this is not gonna care or make sense to but does anybody get where I'm coming from? ----- Original Message ----- From: Lynn I To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, September 08, 2009 1:50 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: I have a question please and thank you. Hi Gwen! It means that you will not see books labeled "adult content". Blessings.

If I go up and make sure my settings are set to no adult content, does that mean when I go into the new books or brose any category that only books with only no adult content will come up or will other books slip through? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- No virus found in this incoming message.
