Debby,
Not Mayrie, but ...
When you put in a book quality report, if there is a major problem, the
book is sent to people contracted by bookshare (called outsourcers) to
be redone. If there is a small, but really annoying problem like the 1
in place of I problem, I think you can mention in your report that you
would be willing to fix it. Then Carrie or whoever handles the report
may put the file back into the checkout queue with a hold for you and
send an email saying it is ready for you to fix. Or it will just be
fixed by someone at bookshare.
So, don't worry that putting in a quality report will make more work for
the original scanner or proofer. That's not what happens. But the book
does get fixed, sometime amazingly quickly.

Hi Mayrie!
I have never been clear on this. What happens after someone makes a
book quality report? I have read a number of books in my Bookshare
membership life that have the number 1 in place of the pronoun I.
Otherwise, the books have been quite readable. No particular books
are popping into my mind at the moment, but it would be nice if the
minor correction could be made. I have not submitted a book quality
report, because I don't want someone to have to rescan a book and have
it proofread again for such a simple thing to fix with a find and
replace.

If you find it a real problem and can't access the books comfortably
on your computer via your browser, perhaps you would consider making
a book quality
report.
