HI Roger,

        I think reporting can only fairly be done after the finished product
has been looked at and found lacking.  At that point, a book quality
complaint can be filed, and Pavi notified. Not looking at the finished
product first is just not quite right, in my opinion.

I wonder if it is appropriate to report a jiffy proofer when he gets someone
else's book. Two days ago there was a book on the download list that had
been there several months and I had my eye on it. Last night I noticed that
it was on the new additions list. That was a quick turn around so I
suspected who the proofreader might be. I clicked the link to the metadata
and sure enough it was listed as having been proofread by NW. That is, Nick
Wilcox got another one.

Hi, List.  Skeptic here.

The "jiffy proofreaders" won't be stopped unless someone reports them to

that "volunteer@bookshare" or whatever address EVERY TIME they "jiffy proof"

a book.  And then, as Pavi said, first they'll get a letter, next perhaps
some

credits deducted. It's going to take some heavy-duty reporting on them to
get

them truly "outta here" for good.

Speaking of "outta here," has anyone had a problem with a "downloader and

releaser" with the initials PM who just seems to be building her own little
library

off of other people's "Holds"?  I did, reported it, and I don't see anyone
complaining

about her, so maybe she's okay now.

But, again, I stress that the "jiffy proofreaders" need to be reported each
and

every time to get any results at all.

I wish you Good Luck,

Sincerely,

Marilyn

It seems to be working, but I am still concerned about depriving the
off-list responsible proofreaders. I hope that somehow the two jiffy
proofers can either
be stopped or convinced to become responsible.

Well, so far "hold for reader" (and I have seen other submitters doing this
too) has kept the person who was taking all of the books I submitted and
then
just checking them back in, from taking those books. So that person is
obviously not on the volunteer list. It seems to be working.
