Hi Kim (and everyone else who wants an anonymous presence after proofing or scanning a book),
You can change your preference within your account so that a Nickname appears on the bookshare website for the books you've scanned or proofread.
Here's how: 1. Sign into bookshare.2. go to the volunteering tab within the "my account" area -- here's the direct link:
http://www.bookshare.org/myVolunteering?tab=volunteering3. the fifth field on that page is "Display nickname instead of real name with books I have submitted/proofed." click the "yes" radio button. Then, in the next field, which is "Nickname to Display for submitted/proofread books" type in the nickname you wish to use.
Tab to the bottom of the page, and click the "save" button.Voila! It will instantly be in place. A neat thing about this is that enabling this option will automatically change to display your nickname instead of your name on all the books you worked on that are already in the collection.
4. Optional: the field on this page after the display nickname field lets you allow or disallow the display of your email address for any books you've proofread or scanned. So, if you don't want your email available to all members, just click the "no" radio button for this option, and remember to click the "save" button next.
That's it! smile. Judy s. rogerbailey81@xxxxxxx wrote:

I'd like some information on it. Please put Hold for Ellinder on the title. Maybe this is really dumb because everybody seems to know I'm proofreading books because my actual name is there as "proofread by Kim Friedman" rather than "proofread by Ellinder". Okay, I'm reconciled. I don't suppose it does no good to want a little anonymity for myself.

If so, I'd like to proofread it if it's warmhearted and has good writing. The last book I proofread was pretty dark, so would like a bit of froth for the next go round.
