Dan,
I took care of it. However, I did nothing that you couldn't have done
yourself. Here's how to handle it in the future.
Check the download pages of each copy. If you can verify that they are
submitted by the same submitter, then just reject all but one copy. I
almost always reject the earlier copies. That way, you minimize the risk of
rejecting a copy that the submitter intentionally uploaded because they
noticed a problem with the original submission, but wasn't considerate
enough to reject the earlier copy with the problem.
Of course, sometimes it's not possible to verify that they have the same
submitter due to the infamous "A Bookshare Volunteer". In that case, I
notify Gustavo since he can see who actually submitted the duplicates. John
should work as well since he should be able to see the actual submitter as
well. I haven't found duplicates submitted by "A Bookshare Volunteer" since
before he was hired, though. Of course, if he can't handle it, he'll pass
it on to Gustavo.
In this case, it was obvious that the submitter had uploaded 2 copies in KES
on 9/29, and a third copy on 10/2 in RTF. The third copy also had an update
to the author field. So, I rejected the first two.
OK, that's how you handle it.
HTH
Gerald

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] multiple copies on the download list
Hi all,
I uploaded the James Herriot book I was validating. Then I went to look for
another book to work on. I noticed that on the list there are 3 entries for
the same book. It is titled "The Essential Jung". Not sure who to contact
about this but maybe someone on this list will know.
