Hi Chanelle, Someone else emailed me first so I've connected her with the new proofreader needing help. Thanks for offering, though, and I'll let you know if we need more help!

Hi Madeleine, I could help the new volunteer with navigating the Bookshare website and using Jaws, a Braille display, and/or Microsoft Word to proofread. I do not have experience proofing text books and have only done one children's book. Even if I am not able to answer all of her questions, I enjoy discovering answers and helping others to problem solve. It is all right if someone else is better qualified or has already offered assistance. My proofreading has slowed over the summer due to being on vacation.

Hello everyone, I have a new volunteer proofreader who has requested a mentor. She is having trouble navigating the site and getting started. She is very interested in children's books and textbooks. She is not a member. Does anyone think this might be a good fit? Please email me directly (madeleinel@xxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:madeleinel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>) if you are interested and think you'd be a good fit!
