I never scan the front cover, because it doesn't scan.

If the title page doesn't scan, I will get the title from the copyright and 
then will add it in, typing or cutting and pasting it.

One of the problems I have come to realize is that often the title of a book
is in such large print that the scanner doesn't recognize it and if the
person doing the scanning is blind, they wouldn't be aware of this. In fact,
I would appreciate some direction from Bookshare on how to handle the title
pages since often their formatitng and layout cause real scanning problems.
Should we include them regardless or use our own discretion? Book covers are
particularly challenging. If this issue has been discussed before, I
apologize for bringing it up again but would like some guidance.
