Lissi,
There are a bunch of books waiting for you on the step 1 list. Shall we
leave them until you're ready?

Dear Robin,
Robin and others,, Given that scanning, validating and having books
approved can be complicated and frustrating, I admire you for inserting
your approach to staying engaged ;with the system in a positive way.
After all there are over 26 thousand books in the collection. There is
much more about the system that works than doesn't work. I'm trying to
claw myself out of a slump, but I think of it as my slump, and not caused
by Bookshare. When I'm able to contribute again, I'm counting on Bookshare
to accept my work, and on this list for fine tuning my efforts when I'm
off track.
While I've been down and out, in a technical sense, the reports of the
wonderful work many of you are doing have come as a steady stream of good news.
I hope to be adding my contributions again soon.
Always with love,
Lissi

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] suggestion for people who are frustrated by
validation process
HI All,
I"m hearing a lot of discouragement about the validation
process--duplication of efforts and delayed gratification of rewards
(having the book appear in the collection).
One thing I really enjoy doing and which I feel is a benefit is to scout
out the books which have been on the download list for a long time--six
months or more. They appear, usually, in the middle of and towards tht
eend of the list on the step 1 page. Even though I have had to reject
some of these books, it still appeals to my sense of tidyness to clean up
the list thusly.
Just a thought....
