There are no choices only a free text box to write in. I agree. The responses do sound like what a member would give.Scott Rains Benetech Fellow, Bookshare Volunteer Department ________________________________________From: bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Sue Stevens [siss52@xxxxxxxxxxxx]Sent: Monday, November 15, 2010 3:27 PM To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Puzzled about all our new vounteer requests Scott, Those reasons sound more like what members would give. Are those the choices volunteers have? If so, there does not seem to be a choice for non-member volunteers such as our non-print impaired volunteers.

There is a "Reasons for Volunteering" box. Answers include. "i want to join" "I want to volunteer because I use Bookshare." "i want 2 read book!! im a student!!" "BECAUSE I WANT TO READ MORE BOOKS." "I want to download books here to broaden my education. I'm very sorry if I'm not what your looking for, but I'm not much of a volunteer." "read books" "Share book" Scott Rains Benetech Fellow, Bookshare Volunteer Department ________________________________________ From: bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bob W [rwiley45@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, November 15, 2010 12:11 PM To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Puzzled about all our new vounteer requests That's really interesting Scott. I think the stats are certainly worth looking at. Is there a question on the sign-up form something like "how did you hear about bookshare?" I think the answer to that questionn would be very helpful.

I can't account for it due to any campaigns we have going from this end. Are any of you aware of any possible contributing factors? Here is some of the trend data: Recent monthly totals of signups: July 38 Aug 28 Sep 35 Oct 42 Signups for Nov, just thru Nov 15: 53! It began around Tue Nov. 9th. Features of the current campaign that are atypical of signups over recent months: 1) over the past week we have averaged >5 signups per day (39 total): This is 3-4x the usual rate. 2) almost all new signups are <not> members Scott Rains Benetech Fellow, Bookshare Volunteer Department ________________________________________ To unsubscribe from this list send a blank Email to bksvol-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put the word 'unsubscribe' by itself in the subject line.
