Excellent, Maryland we need as many sighted volunteers as we can, smile.

Indeed do validating if it is easier on you and less time consuming, smile.

Hi Shelley.

I'm a sighted volunteer, and I'm here to help where needed.
You need me to validate more than scan, that's all the

Thanks for your input.  I shall happily continue to validate.

Hugs,
Marilyn
