Hey am just glad that it got done! And repaired! Smile. It would be horrible if Bookshare office came to a halt, smile. Shelley L.

The reason I'm writing is that we have over a hundred books backlogged for it. There are dozens of new and BSO sci-fi books, dozens of classical music books, and hundreds of romance books chopped and waiting to be scanned. And the September bestsellers are trickling in already. And yesterday a donation of 2 dozen religious books came in. ACK!! At this point, the bestsellers are top priority, then the sci-fi and music books, then the religious and romance books. This email is a plea for patience, since I know some of you are anxiously waiting for various books. We can process only so fast and it'll take us several weeks (maybe a month?) to get out from under the backlog. Thanks for your continued patience!
