[bksvol-discuss] Re: the story of a proofer

Ann,

You understood the point of my message perfectly. Thank you for clarifying 
in a way that I, for some reason, wasn't capable of doing, in my half awake 
state.

Hi all,

Lynne, I believe that Shannon is concerned because one can only
download five books for proofing at one time.  This is why the holds
were instituted.  By placing a hold on a book, it is there to be
proofed, but is waiting for the specific proofer to do so.  By
shortening the period to two weeks, a proofer must reduce the size of
his/her queue before being able to download any more holds.  The
submitter will have to slow down, or cut back on the books scanned for
a given proofer so that he or she can keep up.

Yes, one is able to renew books, but if one has only five books, and a
given submitter is working on a series, those books can't be submitted
until the proofer's queue is reduced or eliminated.  The holds act as a
store room for active proofers who need to work with specific submitters.

Ann P.
