[bksvol-discuss] Re: quality report or BSO?

Hi, Valerie.
There's nothing wrong with doing a BSO yourself.
If it's a book that was proofed by the outsourcers though, I'd submit the 
quality report or let Bookshare know in some other 
way.
This is just IMHO.
Most of the outsourcers do a great job but I think BKS should know if some of 
them aren't.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] quality report or BSO?


I have books on hand that I want to see if they are in the collection and their 
quality if they are already in the 
collection.  Several I have checked are early additions with a fair amount of 
spurious characters or books that have a few 
issues, but would also benefit from picture descriptions.  I am able and 
interested in improving them after some other 
projects, is it okay to do a BSO instead of filing a quality report?

Also, Nichole was given a book of poetry that is in the collection, I think it 
was a Newberry Award winner processed by one 
of the outsourcers, but the poem titles are not identified, nor was verse form 
retained.  Can that be resubmitted as a BSO?

Thanks for your patience with my wanting to improve quality of books for all 
readers.

Valerie
