Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Bad Scan


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
