Hi Monica,
Thanks for your comments.  That explanation makes sense to me.

Since those are bar cookies, should they be eaten or drank?  (just kidding)

  Hi Nancy. The file name of a book will stay the same, even if a person's hold 
is removed from the title on Bookshare. So that's probably why your book seemed 
to have no hold on it, but the file name had one. In that case, you're not 
doing anything wrong. When I submit books to be held for someone, I don't put 
the hold for part in my file name because it can be carried over to the final 
daisy book's file names. If I want a book held for someone, I just put the hold 
for part in the title field of the book submission form. I've noticed that a 
lot of people do it differently though. I have several daisy books on my hard 
drive from Bookshare with file names like Hold For Barbara A To Z Bar Cookies. 
(grin) I hope they'll fix that one day since it's kind of weird to go hunting 
for a book under the word "hold" instead of the first word of the title. Hmm. 
Bar cookies. Now I'm hungry! Lol!

  Hi everyone,

  This note is strictly to save my reputation.

   

  I checked out a book and downloaded it.  I saw no hold.  However when I found 
the file on my computer, the filename indicated the book was on hold.  I 
released it, reported it, and erased it.  Don't want to be considered among the 
(jiffy proofreader) crowd.  

  Nancy Martin
