That is exactly why I can never use BookShare material for the groups I lead and work with. The easiest way to refer to a quote is to refer to a page number, so it is easier for me to scan my own required books, on which I can keep the page numbers. That is really too bad, but until it is decided that books must also meet the needs of instructors or group participants, I will just have to use BookShare material for fun and my own scans for work. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Glass" <John.G@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hello,

There has been some discussion recently about whether or not Bookshare requires page numbers. While page numbers are highly desirable, they are not a requirement at this time.

When validating a book, please don't reject it if all is fine, but there are no page numbers.
