As I'm sure you realize, how soon a book is approved partly depends on how soon it is downloaded for validation and how long the validator takes. Right at the present time books are being approved quite rapidly after being evaluated (in a maatter of days) but some of us still have books on the administrative list that have been there since September or October. I hope you enjoy being part of Bookshare and welcome to the list!. ----- Original Message ----- From: Alexis Read To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, June 22, 2006 3:08 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Question from a newbie Hi all, I became a bookshare volunteer yesterday and have submitted and validated several books. I have submitted 5 books and validated 2. I was wonderring how long it takes an administrator to approve the submissions from the time they were submitted.
