Like the term--and some great books are being batcherized.

Yes, we do love to make up entertaining new words. We're book people
after all. The batchecizer is a simple bit of automation used after
scanning to standardize the books we provide to new volunteers. It
strips out some typical format scannos so that new volunteers are not
faced with them. We reserve them for new volunteers. A new volunteer
is anyone who has yet to successfully complete three scans or proofs.
So BTC books is where new volunteers get their first three books if
they are going to be proofreaders.

Hi all,
I have been seeing books with the prefix BTC and then a number. They
seem to be from Rick Costa. Are they for specific volunteers he is
training? I just wondered if anyone could take them? I don’t want to
take a book that is being held for someone else.
Thanks,
Sue S.
