Hi, everyone:

I'm a new Bookshare volunteer, having just checked out my first book to
proofread last Friday.  Because I'm new at this, I picked a book that
wasn't too long.  I saw immediately that the scan had some issues (missing
title page (there is a copyright page), some missing page breaks, garbled
text).  I went to the public library over the weekend and checked out a
physical copy of the book but I'm wondering how much I'm allowed to fix.
Can I add all of the things that are missing, or is it better to reject the
book?

Any guidance or suggestions on how I should proceed would be welcomed.  I'm
excited to get involved with Bookshare but want to be sure I start out on
the right foot!

Thanks, Jean
