Dear Kellie, Of course I registered as a volunteer - twice as the first one was lost. And I submitted my first book - scanned and self validated by myself and already accepted and available for downloading and I highly recommend it; The Diary of Lady Murasaki and it is intro although not as interesting as Genji. I had to give up on him but am looking forward to downloading him once he is available and I have my rtf copy which may or may not be editable once I am out of openbook but I won't know until next week and at least I will finally get some sleep between now and then. I am getting help and lots of advice on finding funding for Kurzweil and will begin making the attempt as soon as I recaover from these last few days/weeks. Thanks for thinking of me.

Hi Amy, Have you been registered as a volunteer yet? That's the first step to being able to validate books. If you haven't, you can write an e-mail to support@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and let John Glass know you would like to become a volunteer. Once that's set up, we can give you more instructions on how to download books for validation etc. Hope this helps, Kellie
