Subject: [bookshare-discuss] FYI: bookshare staff and duties


Here is info I've accumulated from various posts including, as I recall, the last newletter--actually the first of regular ones.

Bookshare Staff: Lisa Friendly, bookshare manager: lisaf@xxxxxxxxxxxx;

John Glass, customer support, john.g@xxxxxxxxxxxx; (Is he still working at bookshare?)

pavi.m@xxxxxxxxxxxx volunteer-related suggestions, thoughts, or questions that you feel would benefit from a response from Bookshare; Reporting Errors in the Collection: When you run across a title, author name or other book information that needs to be corrected; Quality issues: When a particular submission does not in your view meet BSO standards or you are having trouble validating a certain file and/or you have some tips you would like to pass on to the submitter of that file.; General Volunteering Difficulties/Questions: For anything you are having trouble with or have a question about that you would prefer to direct to someone at Bookshare rather than others on the list.; What Would Bookshare Do? When you want to know what the standardized way of dealing with something is (for instance photo captions etc). Or when you would like us to develop a standard approach for something.; Suggestions/Requests for the Staff: When you run across something in the site, current systems or policies that you would like to see changed/modified in some way.

If you’re a student or teacher requesting a book specifically needed for school, go to the front of the line with mail to: schoolbookrequest@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

If you become aware of a book in the Bookshare.org collection that contains inaccurate text, please let us know and we will make the corrections needed. To report an error, send a message to bookqualityreport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the following information: book title, author, ISBN number and the nature of the error.

Rob Turner <rob.t@xxxxxxxxxxxx>--customer support

Viji.d@xxxxxxxxxxxx;
Robin Seamon--publisher liaiason--robins@xxxxxxxxxxxx

Lindsie--lindsiev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx: she makes up special collections, validates special request books, handles books donated by authors, etc

That's all I have at the moment. There's Allison and the engineering staff, which includes Jake. BTW, Elizabeth, on Jake's site is a list of categories for which there are books in the collection. I don't know if it's been kept up, though. People were making up the lists and posting them on his different animals. Here's the URL for anyone interested.
