But do we even know that this type of abuse of the system actually occurs?

As Evan says, all one has to do is apply to be, and be
accepted to be, a volunteer, not even pay the initial
set-up fee.
But you do bring up a good point. Perhaps bookshare
should find a way to "bump" people who are not members
and who do not either submit or validate a certain
number of books a year--or every 6 months. I know that
seems long, but it takes me a while sometimes to
validate a book because I do other things in the
meantime, like provide missing pages for various
people--and sometimes, as with the Kipling, a book can
take a long time because I read and edit carefully. So
I wouldn't make the time as short as a book a month,
but something...or if there were a pattern like books
being constantly downloaded and released but never
validated.
