Wow nice job to start out with Scott, I hope to hear more ideas from you all I cna't think of any that come to mine right now, but will chime in when I do. Perhaps ellipsis?
grin! --"To me, music that breaks your heart is the music that stays with you forever. It's one thing to be melancholy and one thing to be sophisticated, but when you get the two of them together in a way people can relate to, then I think you're on to something. You want the sophistication to lie in the purity of the sound, the beauty of the arrangements, and the quality of the performances."-Trumpeter Chris Botti

Bookshare Volunteers,This week it occurred to us just how differently we sometimes use words here at Bookshare.We certainly have our own set of abbreviations and acronyms. What other online community can hold such erudite discussions of ellipses, scanner settings, or British punctuation for so long? Where else can you cause such turmoil if you confuse "submit" with "check-in"?As we brainstormed what sort of orientation and training material to create for new volunteers we found that we had generated a word list that could be the start of a glossary. Read through the list below. If you think of other words, acronyms, or concepts that we might be helpful for new volunteers gather them up and email them to me or - if you want to hold the discussion online - post them to the list for others to add to.Enjoy the long weekend.
