Hi, Cindy. I have a scanner and use Openbook to scan. What I was
trying to say is that without credits, I wouldn't do much on the
validating side of things. As it is, I do validation both for the
credit and because we have a pretty hefty step 1 page right
now. Lora was talking about not validating for credits, and that is
what I was responding to. (smile)

Monica,
One gets so much more monetary credit for scanning, and all you'd really have to do after a scan is to check the copyright page and put the right info in the submission form; go through the book and be sure no pages have been omitted (we've all done that, and double-scanned a page, too); and delete junk characters; and run a spell-check. So you validate because you don't have a scanner? I think some can be had relatively inexpensively and it might pay you n the long run.
I don't blame you at all for validating for the credits. I probably would work for the credits, too. I admit that in my lifetime I have volunteered my time and efforts rather than donated money, not only because I feel I'm being useful but because I don't have that much money to donate. smile
