Volunteers,

Off-list several of you asked me about pacing in terms of introducing 
yourselves and your ideas to Alisa. While there is never enough time for 
someone to get oriented to a new position before jumping in this time during 
the holidays might be good.

I know that many of you want to extend the Series Captains project to 
describing images in series. Pamela Hoffard has done that with almost the 
entire Magic Tree House series during this beta test. In fact, 20 of her books 
are described and will be uploaded soon. January will begin the public field 
test. Send in the lists of titles you would like to have uploaded to Poet for 
you to work on. Be sure you select a series where we have DAISY with Images 
files. Indicate whether you want to be a Series Captain and if you will be 
recruiting other to describe the series with you as with the successful 
DragonLance campaign.

And don't forget, we're still trying to make that 4,000 images described mark.
