Speaking of books languishing on the approval queue, and I am copying
this to the volunteer email address so that I can be sure to get an
answer from someone who might actually know the answer, a strange thing
happened to one of my scans. Quite some time back I submitted The
Assassination of Malcolm X. A proofreader eventually took it and
apparently I left him with more problems in it than I thought. He
uploaded it a number of times and Madeleine kept bouncing it back to the
checkout list with a hold on it for him asking that various problems be
corrected. Finally, he had one little problem to correct and he did it
fairly quickly and uploaded it again. However, after he uploaded it that
last time it was after Madeleine left us. Then in a day or so it
appeared on the approval queue with a hold for Madeleine followed by a
hold for the proofreader followed by the title and it has been sitting
there since. First, I am a bit curious about how it could be held for
Madeleine after she left Bookshare. I am wondering if she stuck around a
bit longer than she said that she would to tie up some work she was in
the middle of. Second, I am kind of wondering if my book is sitting on
the approval queue with a hold on it for someone who will never be
around to approve it. I forget how long it has been waiting, but it has
been since shortly after Madeleine left us. Does anyone have any ideas?

I got an email on one approved this week and another maybe two weeks ago. Sorry you are not getting them and I don’t religiously track mine, but the one a few weeks ago was on the approval queue probably almost a month…

I talk, computer types, we both make mistakes. ;-)

Has anyone gotten an email saying a book they submitted or proofread was approved in the last week or so?
I had a book I proofread approved yesterday, but didn't get an email saying so. This is the second book that I've had this happen with since the Bookshare site starting having other problems for us volunteers.
