Hi, Kenneth. I do understand your point of view. As an educator,
you need accurate scans with page numbers. On the flip side, many
children's books and some other types of books do not have print
page numbers. These books couldn't go into the Bookshare collection
if page numbers were required. I suppose we could add page numbers,
although I don't know what the publishers might think of us doing
that. Also, the book I just scanned has come out as a 99.87 percent
accuracy scan, but none of its page numbers have scanned. I could
number the pages, and I'd be guessing since I don't know if the
actual book starts on page one or some other page as some books
do. It has a foreword, and I think the book actually begins on page
13. I can't verify it though because my scanner just won't
recognize any page numbers. I don't have a handy solution and am
trying to describe the experience from my perspective. I would like
to find a way to compromise so we're all happy.
