Hi all,
Since I've been called on the carpet for allowing my fingers to do the
talking, I'll merely say here that I am angry because someone who posts
relevant material is making an apology for being competent! I shall
not say any more except that it may be worth taking a look at your
behavior and seeing if maybe you are the one who is at fault. People
who are always on tap, always willing to help and always posting
relevant materials *are* *not* the ones who are at fault. If you post
three or six one line messages one after the other, if you post
messages that say "I agree", if you post messages that are meant for
individuals, then *you* are at fault, *not* Jamey!
Ann P.
Original message:
Monica and list, I apologize. It appears I am the culprit of posting
too much to the list, even for on topic messages like questions about
the author or exact title of a book.
I am completely to blame because I am eager to help grow the collection
and to make the wishes for books of others come true. I am one of the
few volunteers who will spend my own limited free time hunting down
books that are hard to find or even not so hard to find to make
available to Bookshare members.
I have been told that in the future if I have questions about books I
should email the person doing the wishing privately and I will do so.
If that means that another person also obtains and scans the same book
that I am getting to scan, then we will be doing duplicate work because
the list will not know I am working on the book. But that's the way it
has to be, I guess. Given that the wishlist grows by leaps and bounds
all of the time, I'm guessing it might not be a problem since there
don't appear to be too many others who are willing to hunt down wishes
and get them in the collection.
So again, my apologies. I didn't realize that other people's free time
to read and scan and proof was more valuable than my own free time.
In the future if you have wishes for books please email me privately at
mirxtech@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:mirxtech@xxxxxxxxx> so we don't bother the
list with extraneous conversation.
