Hi Cindy,

Oh yes they still do. I hit that point back  around the first of the year.
My renewal is September 11 so it goes to so how much I did last fall and
winter. Right now I have a number of things going so my validation and
scanning is a little slower than it was. Yeah, once I reach Sep 11 I will
start a crewing again.

Katie, I think what you're submitting and validating
will earn you credits toward your next year's
membership. Unless things have changed, I think you're
allowed to accrue for one year ahead.

 I now have my second but still
keep submitting and
validating. Bookshare is a wonderful resource.

If I remember correctly, quite sometime ago Shelley
posted that she
submitted until she had enough credits to pay for
her first year's
subscription because she was a student and did not
have the money to pay for

a subscription.  Is that right, Shelley, or is my
memory failing me?  I do
not want to put words in your mouth.  <smile>

I submitted a couple of books before paying my
membership fee.  Perhaps you
should ask these people where they got the idea that
they couldn't.  It just
didn't occur to me that I couldn't submit books
before paying.  There's
absolutely nothing anywhere on the site that even
implies that you need to
pay before submitting, only downloading.

I submitted books that I knew weren't in the
collection.  Since I didn't
know about the validation part at the time, I might
have been wasting my
time scanning books that were already out for
validation or in the admin
queue, but I apparently got lucky on that score.
Still, it would be good if
members and nonmembers wanting to submit something
could input a title and
get a message back telling them if the book is out
for validation, waiting
for administrator approval, or not in the system at
all.
