I have a copy of that. If nobody speaks up, I'll see what shape it's in.
If you find others, either send direct to me or please post here. Especially
if it's SF.
Thanks.
Thanks.

As a matter of fact, I recently did a quality report on a book that was
designated as excellent on its metadata page. It was They Walked Like Men by
Clifford D. Simak. Despite the excellent rating of the quality I found scanning
errors on most every page. It was certainly not fair. Those are unreadable. I
judged it to be good and I said that in my quality report. I think it was about
a week or so later that I got an email informing me that it would be rescanned.

the Book quality and make; I'm not positive what will happen; it may go back to
the checkout queue as a BSO; but if no one takes it to proof and correct you
can scan it and submit it as a replacement. Or perhaps a better thing would be
for you to scan and submit it with a note in the comments that it's a
replacement for one in the collection that is far from Excellent;

I have sorted all the "good" or "fair" books that I have copies and will
scan and submit those. What I'd like would be to scan and submit all the books
which are called excellent and which are not. I have heard of these from a
former subscriber who quit in disgust at the appearance of mislabeling. I want
to do what I can to upgrade as much of the collection as I can from the
collection of books which I have. My local library is very small and it would
be better for me to use my own collection of books I have available to me.

I don't know quite what you mean by when we upgraded; when books were
rejected for being less than good? what is it you'd like to do, or have done;
make a list of all books in the collection rated Fair or poor and have them put
on the checkout list as BSOs? that sounds good to me I could take them as I
have time and proof and improve them; (I have quite a few things to do first so
it would take a while but it's the kind of project I'd like.

the "good" list. I will get to those when I have time. But what I'd

to do at this point is to narrow down when we upgraded quality. Does
anyone
remember when that was? I had been using 2005.
Thanks for the input and Happy Thanksgiving to all.
