Hello John!
Thanks for the wonderful news! So many wonderful changes
have taken place in the last few months! Please let the folks
responsible know that their hard work is very much appreciated. And
yaye, If I can maintain my submission goals, I'll have paid
subscriptions until I'm a very old woman. Thank you, all of the
BookShare staff.
Peace,
Mayrie

Hello All,
The Bookshare team has been busy again, and we have made some
updates to the site which we hope you will like:
Here is a summery of the things that have been done:
Submission and validation credits now carry over from year to
year. This means that when a subscription is renewed using credits,
additional credits above the renewal price remain in your account.
The number of books which a validator can have out for validation at
one time is now limited to a maximum of 5. We hope this change will
allow more people to validate, and allow books to be processed more quickly.
We had some reports of problems with simple search, these should be fixed.
Also, there were some authors who couldn't be found using the search
functions. We believe that these have been corrected, but if you
find any which are broken, please let us know.
For some books, the synopsis fields had spaces removed, these have
been corrected.
We are very close to posting our volunteer manual. I am sure that
all of you will find valuable information in it. We will send a
message out to the lists when it is available.
There have been many other internal changes and fixes, which make
Bookshare faster and more efficient for our system administrators.
