There is a specific page on the site for people who
want to sign up as volunteers:
http://www.bookshare.org/web/AboutVolunteering.html

I see, however, that it still says "You must register
as an individual member..." which is misleading. I
thought Lisa said that was going to be changed, when I
mentioned it to her, but it's still there. All they
have to do to make it more accurate is to delete that
phrase from the sentence and have a link to the
application form a volunteer must fill out--and delete
the last sentence, "If you are a new user, Join Now!."

I copying this to Lisa.
