They are approving some books which are very old on the list. A History of Private Life is a shining example. Take heart.

Hi It sure be nice if Gustavo would start at the oldest books, or one of them would . Maybe they could work from the ends to the middle. I still have a book in the Admin Q from last October, that's going on seven months, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Tom

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] MAY 22 Books added to collection
Of the 19 books added to the collection today, only one was on my list of books in the administration queue, and two in books being validated. This means,I guess, that we volunteers are doing a good job scanning and validating, but that John and Gustavo are getting busy with other things and are barely able to keep up with our work.
It could, and probably does, also mean that my revised copies of the Marissa's List from lat April is way out-of-date. Maybe a lot more books are in the collection than I have on my lists, since I didn't start keeping track until fairly recently. It would be lovely if Gustavo could post another list--or maybe Marissa will be back soon and can post a list here. Rui may not be back from his honeymoon yet.
