Thank you! Hugs back to you and the rest of the volunteer group! It took all weekend but I finally tamed the approval queue beast. I still have 4 authors left to do (Stine, Metz, Farshtey, and Mackall) who will be slow, since I need to look up series information about their books, but there's no rush for them. There are a few books where I have questions for the Bookshare librarian, too. And I still need the okay to approve the books with "PUB PHIL tag" in their titles. Each one of them is 6 pages long, containing notes about the book in the title. They are part of a series called Philosopher's Notes, which is I guess like Cliffnotes or Spark Notes. Anyway I am overjoyed to have the approval queue down to a manageable size. Whew! Next on the agenda is the rejection queue, which I have been ignoring for far too long. My apologies for not dealing with it sooner!
