Let me remind you that if you submit the titles to the Bookshare wish
list and identify them as books that you need for school they will be
given priority and scanned in house. I assume that is still the case,
but, in fact, I have not heard about it for a long time now.

Natalie. I'd be glad to scan for you. Your offer to pay shipping both ways is
fine. I usually scan for someone who will send the books and doesn't want them
back but I'll do it. I've never scanned textbooks so might not be the best
person for those but if they're not, I'll give it a try. Do you have a proofwer
in mind or are you going to proof? Write me off-list at

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Looking for a transcriber
Hey everyone,
I haven't popped on this mailing list in years. I still love and use Bookshare
as much, if not more, than I did before. I used to volunteer a lot by scanning
and submitting books.
Anyway, life has moved on and getting into and going through a master's program
at the university has taken most of my time. I don't have the time to scan
books like I did before. Hence the reason I'm back on the list. I have a few
non-fiction books I'm hoping to use in my thesis that I'd like converted into
text. They're not on Bookshare.
They're not recently-published books either.
I'd like to know if I could get in touch with someone that would be willing to
have me send the books and get them scanned. I'll naturally pay for shipping to
send them and get them back in return. I'd also like to note that I may aquire
more books, so this may be an on-going thing.
Thanks,
Natalie B
