Hi, Rose! Welcome to the growing community of Bookshare volunteers. <Smile> With the also ever-growing collection of books needing some TLC, your efforts as a validator will be very much welcomed and appreciated! If you continue to have trouble subscribing to the volunteer list, write to Marissa, our wonderful coordinator, at marissa.m@xxxxxxxxxxxx and if I just typed that in wrong, I apologize in advance! It's been a long and rainy day here in Nashville, and my brain is more than a little tired! <Smile> Anyway, Marissa will be gone for a few days, but I'm sure she'll be happy to take care of you when she's back in the office. Take care, and happy validating!
