Hi Sue:Perhaps the number you entered is being considered a percentage of the BRF book.

Hi Evan,I have noticed what Rick has noticed in my BRF files. Even though page numbers aren't given, if I type a number in the find box, I am taken farther into the book. I can't say if it is actually the page I would be on if I had a hard copy of the book, but I do not get the message "not found". Rather, I am taken to another place in the book.Sue S. -----Original Message----- From: Evan Reese Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2014 2:00 PM To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxSubject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: levels of navigation .... in new books in BookshareHi Rick, No, volunteers do not proofread the PQ books. So if they don't have the right markup, then they don't get fixed up before they get into thecollection. Interesting that you should mention that page navigation works in these books. My experience with reading the brf versions of PQ books isthat most of them don't have page numbers in them.

Suggestion that I make a Book Quality report. I did, I think, make this comment, in a way to bring out that point.That many books are not having the needed headings to use Daisy navigation. And as was stated, there are very very many books coming into the collectionfrom Publisher Quality, or PQ, I guess we call it.So with hundreds and thousands of books coming in this way, those are muchtoo numerous expect the Bookshare members to file those reports. My hope is that somehow much fewer of those books will get into the collection without better Daisy navigation. It may or may not be a volunteer issue at all, I really don't know. Do the volunteers actually do this Proofreading process for all of these?I just raised the point as a member who has experienced this a good numberof times on some books I have downloaded, and found that I would go toadvance to the next section, only to hear, "End of book." Left arrow, and it goes back to the beginning. Change my navigation level to page, and I amgood. I am one of those who really enjoys reading Bookshare books, because I actually like the experience, and increased power of my ease of reading, because I can go to different places in the book. I am old enough toremember how it was to listen to the squirrels barking as the cassette wouldrewind as I would try to find a pasasge or section of a book. Or before that, would drop the needle on the old discs of the NLS player to find a place. There are lots of books I have downloaded, both staff submitted andvolunteer submitted that do have really nice navigation. So I just wanted to bring it up if there is a way to see how it will navigate before it gets put up in the collection. Front end adjustments, rather than hindsight fixes.Hope that makes sense. Happy reading, happy proofreading, everyone!
