If it's that bad it might be a good idea to go to your checked out books page and reject it. "I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do because I notice it always coincides with their own desires." - Susan B. Anthony

Hi,I'm a brand new proofreader for Bookshare. My daughter depends on the service so I figured I would volunteer.My first book, Stoner McTavish, is very challenging. I am used to scanned text so I anticipated some of the errors. But it has so many missing words (and paragraphs) that I bought the book used because none of my 4 neighboring cities have it in their library. It's taking me alot longer than the 2 weeks to do the work because I had to get the copy so I could fix the problems. But I am determined to get this book into the Bookshare library.In the future, if a book has significant scanning problems - like entire pages of text are gobbly-goop - what should I do?Thanks for your advice, Corbett Corbett Joan O'Toole Mail2Corbett@xxxxxxxxx
