Hello all,
Jesse, please correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that there was an
announcement several days ago that Bookshare will be implementing a
system by which the submitters would have much more information
regarding rejections. Now, the real question is whether the system will
use Guido's original suggestions about form letters.

Hi, Mary and Bud. I don't see why it should be so difficult for us to
know
why our books are being rejected. I mean, as a validator, if we reject a
book, there are check boxes to state why we're rejecting the book, so it
shouldn't be too difficult to implement something. Just me thinking out
loud. *smile* Take care.

Hi Bud,
You can write directly to the administrator, Gustavo, to find out why
your
books got rejected. But I certainly agree that a notification as to why
the
book was rejected would be a huge help. You might want to check the
listings to see if those things you submitted exist already. If not,
then
you could doublecheck that you had included copyright material and that
the
books are complete, then resubmit them even including a comment in
the comments field when you upload stating that you'd submitted these
and
can't see why they were rejected. Even if they exist on bookshare
already,
if yours have better text quality, there's nothing saying you can't
resubmit them with a note to the affect that you're submitting copies
whose
text quality is better than those already in the collection.
