Hi, Marilyn,

I don't use Jake's site a lot, but it in fact contains some useful
information, especially for newer validators.

On the first page, space on the continue button
On the next page click on the useful bookshare links link
on the next page click on the Unofficial Bookshare Expansion Initiative link
the most helpful ink on that page is Browse tips.

Jake gives very detailed instructions on solving some problems that can
arise.

I believe that Jake's site was used and publicized more in the past.  I have
been a bookshare volunteer for about a year now and have had only one member
mention the site to me.

I may have provided more detailed information than you need, but I found the
page a bit difficult to navigate so hope my comments may be of some benefit because the tips are very good material and worth locating.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] List from "Friends of Bookshare" site


I don't know, I was just wandering around, and I came upon
a site called "Friends of Bookshare" (right here in "Bookshare.org").
It says it's a list of books that are needed <SOON>.

Never heard of it before.

Should I be looking at this list instead of Step 1?  Should I print
it out and compare it to Step 1?  How often is this list updated?
Does anybody use this list?

I also went to "Jake's site," but I wasn't quite sure what I was
looking at.  Is this a place validators should go to for any
reason?

Thank you, really, very much for your help.

Hugs,
Marilyn
