Hi Kim.
This is taken from the bookshare site under membership:

. Join the Members discussion and meet other Bookshare Members. This discussion 
group is often your best source for good hands-on information. Members share
tips about using Bookshare, discuss books they are reading, and talk about 
print access topics such as scanning or reading technology or just about 
anything
else they think would be of interest to other Members. This is a very active 
list. Once you have subscribed, you may want to change your settings to "digest
form" (see below) which typically means one email a day containing all of the 
emails sent to the list that day. 
list of 2 items nesting level 1
. Subscribe: Send a blank email with "subscribe" in the subject line to: 
bookshare-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 
. Digest Form (one email per day): Once you have subscribed, send a blank email 
with "set digest" in the subject to: 
bookshare-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 

If you have problems, ask and I'm sure someone on this list can help.

  Hi Kim,

      I'd go to the freelists web site and search for "bookshare-discuss" as a 
list name without the quotes.  Once you find it, I'm sure you'll be able to 
find directions for how to subscribe.  I'm certain it's very similar to 
whatever you did to subscribe to this list.  I don't remember exactly how to do 
it, or I'd just give you instructions.  Perhaps someone else on the list 
remembers.

  Good luck!

  Mayrie

  Hi Kim,

      I notice that a lot of your messages are off topic.  You might have more 
fun with this if you were to join the bookshare-discuss list.  It's more about 
books in general and not designed to be specifically for volunteering-related 
subjects.

  Hi, gang, Kim here. You've just provided me with more ammunition to inveigle 
people to join Bookshare. I solemnly swear to see what I can do here. I say 
this because I know some folks who play virtual games of chess. Check out 
for-the-people.com and see what I mean. There are people there who play chess, 
golf, poker, etc. Think of what could happen should some of those people join! 
Will we be inundated with books on various card games and golf? What's a poor 
non-sports/games player to do? Any plans to do something regarding where one 
can find role-playing games and how to play them? Regards, Kim aka Ellinder.

  Hi Jamie,

  Maybe they will be encouraged when they see that the book got into the 
collection and do more chess books.

  Great, thanks! The submitter sounded like he or she (I can't remember who it 
was and did not recognize the name) really did a lot of work on the book. 
That's the only reason I decided to give it a try and see if it needed any 
final touches.
