When I logged in, I saw the Volunteer Home Page, so I guess I am an approved, volunteer, right? I have already scanned a book and it has been accepted. So I know how to do that. What I do not know how to do is the validation process. What do you mean when you say that you have to change the format? Can I just do everything in Kurzweil, or do I have to change the format? I want a list of instructions. I do not understand what you mean by rft, etc. I take it that people get the books through Interlibrary Loan. I live in San Jose, CA and have a great public library that is attached to an university so I can order just about anything. Therefore, if anyone needs help getting books, I can help. Thanks!
