Hello everyone:
we are approaching 200 messages for the last 24 hours.
let's try to tone it down. otherwise we will have more people
unsubscribing.
As far as rejecting books goes, anyone who does reject a book, i encourage
you to e-mail booksharescans@xxxxxxx
Your book will be added to the "no book left behind list." This list does
servr as a good resource for people who want to scan but aren't sure what
book to scan.
that along with the other lists on the page are only as up-to-date as
bookshare volunteers make it.
speaking of which, time for me to update Marissa's list. (smile)
