Hi, Debby!

Only NIMAS and some publisher submitted books have images, unfortunately. I am saving my scans, though, and if BookShare finds a way for us to submit with images, I will resubmit with them. I do not believe images are allowed in volunteer scans at this time. Let me know how we are doing on descriptions. We will have another up this week called The Family of Earth.

HTH!
Valerie

Hi Doug and Valerie!

Congrats for getting your book accepted. That's a sweet story of you two working on a book together. I am planning to download the book.

So, when it says as an option on the book information page for any book, "book title /images" is that the actual graphic images or descriptions?

Another book scanned by Valerie and proofed by me has been accepted and is now on the Bookshare list for anyone to read. Sisters of the Scituate light by Stephen Krensky is a good story for kids that takes place during the war of 1812. Thanks to Valerie for doing such a great scanning job!
