Hi Shane,

There are probably a few ways of doing this, I'll just tell you what I find works for me. When you log into Bookshare, there is a link on the home page called Books in Progress. This link takes you to a page showing all the books that are currently somewhere in the approval process, whether that be the step one page, out for validation, awaiting admin approval, or in the rejection cue. Each stage of this process is organized into a table, allowing for quick navigation if you are using a screen reader. Without going into specific detail since I'm not sure which screen reader you are using, if any, I'll tell you that once I was on the books in progress page, I navigated to the first place where I expected the book to be, based on your description of your most recent actions. And it looks as though your book is in fact part of the administrator approval pool. In other words, you did successfully upload the book.

Scott

you know, this is weird. Two days ago, I submitted the copper Scroll for admin approval after validating it, and I got no such errors, and I forgot to do the space/backspace thing in word or word pad, and it seemed to be accepted. Where on the bookshare site do I go to make sure it got there?

Do the open file in MS word, then push the space bar, delete that space and
resave, and try again.

Also if that doesn't work remove the ISBN.

As I have had to do that on one of the books.

I am again unable to upload avalidated RTF book:  Body Count, by P.D.
Martin.  Conversion from .KES to .RTF goes fine, the upload happens, then
there's an error.

The first time, I got all the checkboxes as to the software's rating the
book as adult content, the Excellent rating, etc.  I inserted the ISBN's
etc., and all went fine till the page crashed.

The second and third times, I just got an error copying the file.

Thanks to John Glass for previously going over the upload process, and to
Cindy for those pesky chapter titles.

One quick suggestion: How about labeling the various "Accept" pages as No.
1 and 2, first and second, something like that?  When focusing on that
control, you don't know just where you're at.

   P.S.: I'll keep trying.
