Funny you should ask.....

 

The Bookshare.org staff and a group of volunteers have been working on a
major rewrite of process for submitting and validating, etc for the past
six weeks.  It's been due for some time.  The BKS VOL list should have
in a few weeks.  So, your ongoing patience is much appreciated.  

 

Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

    Hi Everyone,  Maybe it's time for the Volunteers to draft a list of
suggested guide-lines andask the Bookshare administration to consider
them.

        If you are the validator you won't know if the book has been
rejected unless the person who scanned it lets you know. This is one of
the reasons I think that Bookshare should require the scanner to give
his/her name. I can understand if the scanner doesn't want to give their
E-mail address but there needs to be some way that they can be
contacted. This may be an example of a volunteer job that someone on the
list could fill.

                What ever happens, is what ever happens.  I still have
the zip file that I downloaded.  So, wheather the person releases it or
rejects it, I can work with it and do what needs to be done. <g>

                But how can you tell if it gets rejected if it does?
