Hi All,

Great to see the ideas and enthusiasm around growing our volunteer base!

Wanted to share with you a volunteer posting that we put up today on a site 
called VolunteerMatch that does just that -- match volunteers with 
opportunities in areas that interest them.

You can view the post here: http://www.volunteermatch.org/search/opp413877.jsp

We received our first referral this morning (smile).
As Volunteer Coordinator I will definitely be looking for more such 
opportunities to invite volunteers on board -- and your suggestions offer some 
wonderful starting points to explore. Moving forward I just need to be sure 
that any content we put out is consistent with Bookshare's policies. The 
posting above for example was reviewed by senior leadership at Benetech before 
it went live.

Together we should be able to open up the Bookshare volunteer experience to more book-lovers wanting to pay-forward the joys of reading in this unique way!
