Hi Kim,

Right now some books that came in before are being reprocessed by
Bookshare's tools to apply some fixes to them or their book information
that needed fixing.  That's why you're seeing books that appear to be
added to the collection twice.

Better to have better quality books, and accurate book information,
isn't it, than to leave inaccurate stuff there?

Mayrie

Hi, gang, it seems bookshare is being inundated again with stuff from
publishers. The one thing I hope is that there will be more new stuff
than the repetition of books that these publishers have already donated.
I have no idea what or if Bookshare can say: "Thanks very much,
sir/ma'm, but remember, you sent us Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka last
quarter and it's fine. You don't need to send it again." This book
inundation is lovely but I can't keep up with what's new, very daunting
for me since I like to check the site every day for fiction I might
like. Regards, Kim Friedman.
