Wow! That's great.
I suspect most of us who validate would rush at the chance to help a
potential Eagle Scout.
Thanks for giving us the opportunity.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Boy Scout meritbadge booklets are coming
Hi all,
First I want to apologize for not getting the next "The Work and the
Glory" book done. I also want to apologize for not getting the Financial
Peace Revisited by Dave Ramsey completed. I have had major time shortages
due to work and family.
Now, I had talked some time ago about doing the meritbadge booklets. One
of the scouts in the troop I work with has decided to get them ready for
submition to Bookshare as his Eagle project. We have now started and I am
having to teach a dozen or more folks how to do the clean up and
preparation of the files.
I will start submitting the files to Bookshare over the next week or 2. I
would appreciate any effort the community could spend on these. I'd like
to be able to report to the scout on the progress of the submitions.
Each of these files will be easy validations of 50 to 150 pages. The
booklets are smaller page sizes than most regular books so there is less
text involved. I will be doing my own validation before submitting them
so they will be very clean.
We are all rather excited about this young man's project. It will have
far greater impact than most Eagle projects.
I understand that another scout has done his Eagle project by submitting
books to Bookshare. However, this is the first time the meritbadge
booklets have been submitted to Bookshare other than the one I submitted
myself a few months ago.
To tell the truth, I had to go through a good deal of effort to get this
approved by the Boy Scout national office. I was rather surprised at the
resistance I found. However, once we got past the front line of the
office we have found that the rest of the staff there are bending over
backwards to see that we have all the materials we need.
Thanks for any effort you can spend on this.
