Hi Gerald, Well I guess I knew that but it was a good thought! It doesn't
do much to encourage me to continue submitting after my twenty are in. I
guess the love of BookShare is the glue that binds, and of course keeping
Gustavo busy! Tom

Only if you spread them out over your lifetime since you stop accumulating
credits once you meet yor quota for your next subscription. My current
subscription doesn't run out until the beginning of July, and based on last
year when my first subscription ran out, I can't begin accumulating more
credits until I get the e-mail in June which informs me that I need to pay
for my next subscription and follow its instructions.

Hi Gerald, is it possible that a thousand submissions, (scans) is a life
time membership? or maybe it should be five thousand? Tom

Tracy,
Don't forget about all the books in the admin queue. Gustavo is only counting the different volunteers whose books he's processed, not all of the volunteers who've actually been working on books since you can't reduce your subscription until Gustavo gets around to approving a book you worked on.
Also, some of us aren't eleigeable to get credits until our subscription comes due again because we've met our quota.
HTH

I was surprised by one of the statistics in the newsletter, that 50
members have reduced their subscription cost by volunteering. I know some
of us volunteers are not members, but I think most are. Are there really
only a bit over 50 of us?
I try to recruit new volunteers--talk up how fun and interesting it is to
my friends and NFB chapter, though I don't know if I've had any takers.
No wait, a friend of mine tried to volunteer recently, but couldn't get
Bookshare to answer him, so he gave up.
If there are only 50+ of us, we need more volunteers! And we need
Bookshare to answer people who try to volunteer, and bring them into the
fold.
Tracy
