Robert and Cindy,

Is it really necessary?  I don't want to mess it up.

Robert,

I have a question about the headers.  I am afraid to use the
header/footer
stripper in my Openbook...should I be doing this with all my scans?  I
am
afraid I will distort the text.  Thanks in advance.

Thanks Monica you explained it better than I did. I have seen a few
books
with the headers still in them and there have a lot of books with
errors
in them but I am not on anyone's case or anything All of us that
includes
scanners have to do a better job.

Hi, Mickey. I think people are basically saying that since we're
being
paid more credit to validate, let's do a good job and not just pass
stuff through the system. In the past, some people would validate a
bunch of books to earn a year's membership. They didn't spend much
time
in individual books because they knew they'd have had to validate
100
books in a year to earn next year's membership. That has changed
now. I
could be wrong, but I think people are just encouraging each other
to
raise the bar of what's acceptable validation. You have always been
a
careful validater, Mickey, so I don't see that this would change a
lot
for you. (smile) You taught me a lot about being a good validater.
I
used to be the kind of person who would just get a book and read
it,
ignoring small errors and only stopping if I literally couldn't
read
something. That has changed, and you, Sue, Katie, and Elizabeth are
all
responsible for helping me make that change. It didn't happen
overnight
or even over a period of weeks. It took me a good year or more to
finally understand and then incorporate careful validation
principles
into how I do things. It's taken another year for me to refine the
process, to use a system to do these things quickly and
comfortably.

I think I'll do pretty much the same job I've always done, because
I
think all of us are doing our best. I don't know that we should
change
our criteria for accepting or rejecting a book. We validators work
hard to make the best product we can. Because we've changed our
rate
of pay, I don't quite understand what that has to do with the
scanners. Maybe I'm missing something.
