Hi Cindy,
I did acknowledge that sending small portions of books is acceptable. It
sounded as though Mickey was suggesting that each person take, say a fourth
of the book. Sending that much I would think would be a bit much and would
not be advisable. After all, all portions of a book are copyrighted, not
just the whole thing. If that weren't the case, then everybody could send a
book in two pieces and be legal *grin* oh if it only were that way.
Also, record keeping is important for BookShare. They need to know who
worked on what books. That wouldn't be possible to keep track of if another
person was providing more than just small chunks to fix up the book.
BTW Yes, I would think that copies that Gustavo rejects are still stored on
the BookShare system, just flagged as not being part of the public site.

But if only one person is going to approve and upload and take the credit for the book, and others are just helping. There was one book I validated where half the book was missing; I scanned and validated and sent the missing half to the person who was validating it. Also, I've done chapters or sections of a book for validators who needed them done. We're not exchanging whole books, which is against the copyright law, just providing sections to help the main validator.

Hi Mickey, BookShare prefers that a single validator do the work on each book. This is for record keeping purposes and copyright obligations. Sending more than a few pages to replace garbled or missing pages is perfectly acceptable, but sending whole books or chunks of books is not.
HTH,
Jake
