Hi there, This has happened before, and I can't remember how it got solved. Don't feel bad! At least we know where the book is supposed to be! It may show up in your checked out books in a bit and then you can release it. You're right, it should show up on the page of your checked out books, but it's just a glitch that it isn't there. Hope it shows up there in a bit so that you can release it. Keep us posted. And no worries!

When I go to "My Checked Out Books," I am told "You have no checked out books." Yet I do find Partisan in my "downloads" on my desktop -- I guess I got it by clicking on the link in Em Rose's email, just out of curiosity to see how it would show up. It led me to a blank screen, so I thought that was that, and I didn't give it another thought until I saw my name on this list. I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to leap in, and now I just need to figure out how to put it back for Tim. It says "Once you have finished proofreading a book, click "Check in" in the Action column...." but I don't know where this is. Shouldn't it be in my "checked out" books list? But it says I have no checked out books. I'm really confused.

How did I get it? Lordy. Let me figure out how to put it back. I'm not even an approved proofreader yet.
