Hi Evan, I don't know whether Tomoko is eligible to download books from Bookshare. If not, comparing the books is not an option. Our fully sighted volunteers don't have the option to compare books.

If you wanted to do a bit more work, you could download the copy on Step 1 and check its quality against the copy that is already in the collection. If the copy on Step 1 was better, then you could validate that one and put BSO in front of the title when you uploaded it to the Admin Queue. Or, if the copy already in the collection has an excellent rating, you could still check the copy on Step 1 and see if it is better. If it is, or you think you can make it better and want to do so, then you could replace the one that is already in the collection and explain in the Comments section why you are replacing a copy that is already in the collection. If it is not better, then you would just reject the copy on Step 1 by putting a comment in the Comments section of the rejection form stating that there is already an excellent copy on Bookshare.
