Hi Beverly,
Even though you do not really have the book, pretend you do and release it.
Then everything will be okay, if you don’t want it.

OK, somebody needs to help me. When I go to "My Checked Out Books," I am told
"You have no checked out books."
Yet I do find Partisan in my "downloads" on my desktop -- I guess I got it by
clicking on the link in Em Rose's email, just out of curiosity to see how it
would show up. It led me to a blank screen, so I thought that was that, and I
didn't give it another thought until I saw my name on this list.
I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to leap in, and now I just need to figure out how
to put it back for Tim. It says "Once you have finished proofreading a book,
click "Check in" in the Action column...." but I don't know where this is.
Shouldn't it be in my "checked out" books list? But it says I have no checked
out books. I'm really confused.

ACK! That is a mistake. How did I get it? Lordy. Let me figure out how to put
it back. I'm not even an approved proofreader yet.
