Only problem with what you are telling Tracy is the same as for me.  I had
to beg for a book on the list, and it was Mary that got it for me and one
other person.  All the scanners are "attached" to their proofers.  I have
often asked for a hold to be put on especially books on dogs, and I have
never received a reply nor a hold.  Also, not every volunteer can wade
through the traffic on this list just to get to know the people.  Not only
that, but I have often felt the clique feeling here, though not towards me
in particular.  Lets not demand that all volunteers be on this list! Bad
idea just to find a scanner which they may not find.  (smiles) My opinion,
of course.

Hi all,

Tracy, have you made an effort to get to know folks here?  Have you let 
anyone know the kinds of books you're interested in proofing?  Have you 
put out an announcement on the list as to what you'd like to proof?  A 
scanner cannot know all proofers, and may not know that you're 
interested in proofing a given type of book.

Maybe what we need is to have volunteers write blurbs or fill out forms 
where they say what types of books they like.  Just a thought.

Ann P.
