Lissi, We miss hearing from you as much as we did. This list is invaluable,
in both increasing our skills and getting to know people.

Dear Mickey, I hope I'll be volunteering soon as my computer is working thanks to EarthLink.
Always with love,

Watch for that bounty page. I did a book that was listed, and the Tuesday after I validated the submission, it showed up. Silly me--I thought it was my validation that went through, since I got credit for one book. But apparently someone else had another copy of it, and they now have two validated copies. I'd have loved the credit, too, but probably won't get anything for it.
We need volunteer organization. I'd think the off-site volunteers could be coordinated from somewhere outside of California.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Books out for validation page, and the bounty wish list page ...
I was looking at the Step 1 page and saw a .DOC version of the same book I
scanned and submitted a few weeks ago....
STOLEN LIVES: TWENTY YEARS IN A DESERT JAIL by Malika Oukfir and Micheele Fitoussi I submitted it on January 25.
Is this the correct URL for the most recent Marissa's List of books out for
validation to Bookshare? It is dated February 8.
http://members.cox.net/booksharescans/Marissa.html
Another couple books I submitted on February 22 but do not see on the list
are:
A MAP OF THE WORLD. By Jane Hamilton
BREATH, EYES, MEMORY. BY Edwidge Danticat
The only other book submission I have out is the Feb. 13 submission of THE READER. By Bernhard Schlink, Carol Brown Janeway (translator)
NOTE: I selected those above from the Bounty Wish List. I did click on the
Scan It link at the time I got the books and proceeded to scan and submit
them. I had not really known until I got looking after seeing this .DOC
version of Stolen Lives on the Step 1 page, BUT those books are STILL LISTED
THERE!
Here is a quick paste from the page...
Title Author
Breath, Eyes, Memory Edwidge Danticat Scan It!
Drowning Ruth Christina Schwarz Scan It!
Icy Sparks Gwyn Hyman Rubio Scan It!
A Map of the World Jane Hamilton Scan It!
The Reader Bernhard Schlink, Carol Brown Janeway Scan It!
Stolen Lives: Twenty Years in a Desert Jail Malika Oufkir, Michele Fitoussi,
Ros Schwartz Scan It!
The Drowling Ruth and Icy Sparks books have alreeady been accepted and I guess are in the bookshare library.
So if someone knows who to tell about that, I just thought I would mention
it. I figured perhaps that is how another person went to all the trouble to
scan the Stolen Lives book.
Just in case there was a glitch, I went ahead and re-clicked on the SCAN IT
links and informed the recipient of the submissions. Hope that was okay to
do.
Thanks.
Rik
