Because I don't think our tireless volunteers get nearly the credit
they deserve. A mentor of mine recommended recently that I read the
"Age Of Roosevelt" trilogy by Arthur M. Schlesinger to better
understand the underlying conflicts and policy debates that shaped the
New Deal. And I sighed rather forlornly and thought well that's not
going to happen anytime soon. I couldn't have been more wrong. On a
fancy, I went looking on Bookshare, and Larry Lumpkin and Beverly Cory
had come through spectacularly. These are hefty tomes, with the
slimmest weighing in at nearly six hundred pages, and they had scanned
and proofed all three of them. With all the wealth we receive from
Publishers, I never, ever wanna forget our incredible, irreplaceable
volunteers. I can not overstate how incredible it was to just
immediately, with no fuss or bother, have access to highly scholarly
works in the Bookshare library. Am sending both of y'all--and all the
other volunteers quietly working away to fill the gaps Publishers
leave open--right now.
