That is probably an understatement. Last I heard less than 10% of the Books
HE's donated made it into the collection.

Jim Fruchterman gave an interesting talk on the future of Bookshare.
You can listen to it here:

One thing I recall Jim saying was that many of the books donated to
Bookshare by colleges did not go into the collection due to quality
issues.
