Me too.Cindy, please think of the maintenance headaches there would be in merging this file to your books being scanned list.
It probably would be helpful if you put the link to this list in your email signature along with the wish list etc. that are already there.
Just my thoughts. (butt-in Bob)"We know the future will outlast all of us, but I believe that all of us will live on in the future we make,"

Hi Judy, I hate "I agree" messages, when I'm the one posting them, so try really not to do so, but in this case, I feel very strongly that the lists need not be combined. For all of the reasons that you give. Mayrie -----Original Message----- From: bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Judy s.

It's a duplication of effort, and it's an absolutely huge list of four to five thousand books. Also, it's a work in progress by Bookshare, and it contains not only booksbeing scanned by outsourcers, but also contains books that have already beenscanned by outsourcers. My reasoning is that this list is going to be updated twice a week by Bookshare, all the volunters have the link to it, it's enormous, and will make for a unmanageably large daily email download for posting to these lists. Just my thoughts. smile. Judy s. Cindy wrote:That's very helpful.

We've decided to implement that - in order to let volunteers know when that list is modified and also to give more recent volunteers a heads up on the fact that such a list exists! In general the list is updated twice a week. A new set of updates was just made and the updated list can be viewed by clicking the link below: https://wiki.benetech.org/download/attachments/17268805/929Booklist.t xt All good things, Pavi Pavi Mehta Volunteer Coordinator, Bookshare Benetech 480 S.
