Was that slip about going international a tease or what? If that is truly
possible that could potentially be a major jump, and I mean MAJOR jump, in
both membership and number of books. Pessimist as I am, I truly doubted it's
possibility...

I had a great time at CSUN. Susie and I gave a talk called NIMAS 101, designed to demystify the upcoming new NIMAS standard (hey, it's just HTML plus some extra tags that help navigation, and works great in your browser). George Kerscher and I had a rare chance to do a joint presentation, called "Scan (or Create) the D*** Thing Once!" And, I really enjoyed being able to be part of the 530 meeting, where we had users, vendors, staff and volunteers. I gave an update on Bookshare.org in the coming year: better funding, hiring, more book permissions (equals pub quality and usually global rights), quality upgrades ala NIMAS and going international.
