Hi, Dianne, Nice to meet you and to hear about your interests. What version of Word are you using? I recently upgraded to Windows 7 and office 2010. Word 2010 is quite different than Word 2003, but I'm adjusting. My husband and I have been volunteers for Bookshare for about six years and we enjoy proofreading. I occasionally will scan a book for submission, but do prefer proofreading. Hope you enjoy volunteering here. Lori C.

Phelps with guide dog, Hibiscus of Napa, California. I have recently signed up to become a Book Share volunteer with a view toward toing some proof reading for Book Share. I have to do a couple of things to my Microsoft Word program and make sure I am able to run the find and replace systems appropriately and can check for proper page breaks and the like. If you will be patient with me for just a bit, I will begin to start this volunteer work. I am just a bit overwhelmed with the procedures, but Mayrie has given me some information to work with which will be very helpful. I am an avid reader and read constantly, but there is no reason, I can't do some of this with the computer and help out, for me, probably one book at a time, at least until I really know what I am doing. My preferences are definitely mysteries, biographies, some Christian fiction and have had some experience with medical terminology in my work as a medical transcriptionist. I also enjoy reading about animals, particularly dogs because I am working my eighth wonderful guide who is absolutely amazing. I know many of you from other places, and it is wonderful to reconnect, and I look forward to getting to know those whom I don't know. Sending happy smiles to all, Dianne B. Phelps and Hibiscus
