Rick prepares Level 1 or 2 books to assign to new volunteers. He batch uploads
them with a hold even before we have a specific volunteer in mind. It is very
important not to take those books because, with the PQ pipeline, it has become
increasingly difficult to locate easy books for beginner proofreaders.

I can't say that I have noticed any marked priority, but I do have a
question about some others. What are these books marked hold for new vol?
