I'm writing because I want to thank six really cool volunteers for helping
me get some books into the Bookshare collection. Mayrie, Linda, Lynn, Susan
and Larry Lumpkin, and Laura Ann are giving generously of their time to scan
books for me. I've had some health issues to cope with and am working at a
job I'm really enjoying. So the books I was planning to scan have been
languishing in a pile on my desk. I was overwhelmed and was getting
discouraged. These people graciously let me mail them boxes of books, and
I'm already seeing the books popping up on the Bookshare site. Mayrie even
scanned A Farewell To Yarns, by Jill Churchill, in time for us to enjoy as a
Christmas mystery. Larry and Susan have scanned and validated several
romances that my mom donated for the Bookshare collection. Linda, Lynn, and
Laura Ann are working on books for me from a wide range of genres, books I
really want to read and think others will like too. I feel so thankful and
blessed to have such committed and supportive friends and fellow volunteers.
Thanks to each of you. (smile)
