Hi Mayrie, Note that I said "my tongue is firmly planted in my cheek."So no need for a spanking - I am not recommending that others or myself put anything but the page number at the top to protect page headers, as I pointed out in an earlier email to Bob. smile.

Hi Judy,I know it would be funny. But, at the risk of leading people to frustration, it is proven, and recently by Lori, that putting anything, stars, the word "header," anything except the page number cannot be counted upon to be deleted by the stripper. People protect their chapter headings with things other than page numbers, and though the chapter headings stay put, the protection devices don't always leave as they are expected to do. Really, no one has ever complained or had a problem with simply putting the page number above a chapter heading separated by a blank line.Sorry if I sound harsh. I just hate to see folks adopt methods that aren't completely predictable in their results.I'm sure that we could all write some very creative odes to the lovely stripper!Peace, Mayrie At 08:30 PM 5/17/2008, you wrote:Oh, I like this idea, G. Cindy - until the stripper gets modified maybe we really should use some creative repetitive phrases to protect chapter titles.Maybe we can call them martyr phrases or something similar. After all, they are text lines that selflessly give their lives to the Evil Stripper, all for the greater good.Yes, my tongue is firmly planted in my cheek but I kinda like the idea of calling 'em martyr lines!Judy s Grandma Cindy wrote:E's note made me laugh. Do we really need a hard and fast rule? What we need is a modification of the stripper so we don't have to protect chapter titles,etc. But in the meantime, we can put anything we like on the line above them--except obscenities, of course--flowers, asterisks, the word love, dollar signs. Let's be creative. grin G.Cindy --- On Sat, 5/17/08, Bob <rwiley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:From: Bob <rwiley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Missingstory titles To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Saturday, May 17, 2008,12:09 PM Thanks E. I'll second that, or sign the petition, or burn my draft card (if I can find it).This is ridiculous. An update to the volunteer manual concerning this issue would be nice but seems to be asking too much. So, how about giving us a hard and fast rule we can follow so that books we scan and validate don't get mangled on their way in to the collection.Bob ----- Original Message ----- From: "E." <thoth93@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To:<bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, May 17, 2008 1:56 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Missing story titlesThis is a direct appeal to staff for an officialruling!!!I have been on this list since the beginning of 2003.For the entire timethere has been a discussion of how to protect chaptertitles and storytitles from being stripped. It is now 2008. Staff please once and for all give guidance on this. Surely there is one way and only one way to make surechapter headings andstory titles are retained! All this guessing is ridiculous since staff has knownabout this issuesince at least January of 2003.
