Hi everyone,
It feels great to be back on the volunteer list again! I've been a
Bookshare
member since 2003 and started volunteering at some point during 2004. I
started working for Bookshare in the Collection Development department
about
5 and a half years ago. It's a great job and I really love it.
A little more about me... I live in Tempe Arizona and do my Bookshare work
remotely from home. I've been blind all of my life from glaucoma. I have a
degree in Women's Studies from Arizona State University. I also have a pet
Chihuahua named Bailey. I love reading and will read just about anything
except for romance novels. My favorite author is Jodi Picoult. Exploring
assistive technology (AT) is one of my hobbies so my friend Darrell and I
do
a podcast on www.blindaccessjournal.com. It consists mostly of assistive
technology related topics with a focus on the iPhone and VoiceOver.
Thanks to everyone who has already said hello to me on this list. It makes
me feel very welcome. I'm familiar with some of you on the list, but there
are still many people I'm looking forward to getting to know. I understand
from personal experience how much work goes into volunteering so I really
appreciate each of you. I'm happy to answer questions or help out however
I
can. Feel free to write to me at
allisonh@xxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:allisonh@xxxxxxxxxxxx> or on this list.
Best,
Allison

I don/t know what A.t. is, but welcome back, Allison. Also, I should add
that Allison spent time and effort in years past writing synopses when
volunteers had failed to do so.

Hi everyone
Please welcome Allison Hilliker to the discussion list. Allison is both a
Bookshare member and staff person, who is expanding her duties in
Collection
Development to provide support and technical assistance to us on the
volunteer side and help me answer those questions. Allison has both
personal and professional experience with A.T. and proofreading, so I know
she'll be a great asset to the volunteer program!
