That may be true of books that have text only. But if you think a book needs picture descriptions, you may want to do a BSO. I don't know what the outsourcers have in the way of being obligated to write those.

I have found that making a quality report has led to the complete replacement of a book in a surprisingly short time. In that case, I do not think I would bother with a BSO. I would rather spend my time scanning something that was not in the collection._ _ _"I believe in recognizing every human being as a human being, neither white,black, brown nor red. When you are dealing with humanity as one family, there's no question of integration or intermarriage. It's just one human being marrying another human being, or one human being living around andwith another human being.... The worst form of a human being, I believe, isone who judges another human being by the color of his skin."

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 To unsubscribe from this list send a blank Email to bksvol-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxxput the word 'unsubscribe' by itself in the subject line.
