Cindy,

I don't know if you can even count on keeping up for the first 24 to 48
hours because I uploaded a book between the time Gustavo ran the querry and
Jake posted the results, so the Admin Approval queue was out of date even
before we saw it.

BTW, the book I uploaded for approval is a replacement for Witness in Death
by J. D. Robb.  I'm validating Grace's scan of Ceremony in Death now and
plan to rescan Naked in Death when I'm finished because I noticed it has
words missing.  That will catch the series up, and Bookshare should keep it
current since the new books are showing up near the top of the NYT
Bestseller list.

Gerald

Hi Cindy,
    You cannot reliably check the collection. Books may have gotten 
submitted twice, or there might be other replacements that are not flagged 
BSO.

    Catcher in the Rye for instance has a copy submitted by Peter Scialli, 
in the collection, not the one Shelley improved at the request of Marissa.

    This ambiguity that can arise is one reason that when you attempt to 
update the lists, I take it with a very big grain of salt. Gustavo's list 
are generated by querying the actual database from my understanding and so 
are likely to be correct. The day or two after the lists come out, you can 
probably update them with data but after that...

    For instance Gustavo approved 12 English books today and several Spanish

ones. Subtracting those off my list knocks it down to just 25, not the 19 
you hoped for.

    Just some thoughts to keep in mind.

Jake
