There a lot of submitters who never join a list. Many of them spoke to me
at CSUN. Really I ought to say former submitters. They say they have lots
of books on their hard disks. They are frustrated by difficulties using
the submitting screen particularly with JAWS. I am not a JAWS user. I
rarely submit.
This issue seems deeply significant and ought to be addressed. Also there
ought to be a link right above submitt saying "report failure to
submit. Even if the person clicks that link and does not comment we have a
tally. If a form is presented for commentt, bookshare has gathered even
more information. Such info is valuable when seeking grants for, say,
engineering and hardware.
The second complaint I hear is about quality, particularly that of well
known books or older books. Appparently parts of the Lord of the Rings are
rated excellent and may stray from the rating.
This issue was brought up at the thursday evening CSUN meeting. I think
there is going to be some official way for a user of a book in the general
collection to put in explicit comments.
