Hi all,
Well, as the old farmer's wife said, "If I knowed you was comin', I'd
have baked a cake."
You nailed it on the head. If I had only known I would have written to
Volunteer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and probably gotten an answer. I rejected the
book because I couldn't get the info I needed like chapter headings.
Apparently, the chapter headings were graphics or something, so they
didn't scan. So I had no idea except my best guess as to where they
were supposed to go. Frustrating because there really wasn't much else
wrong with the book.
It would be truly helpful if the volunteer coordinator would spend a
little more time on this list, and be available to answer questions.
What would be even more helpful is actually receiving a notification
about such things instead of having to throw away perfectly good work
through ignorance.
I guess I sound a bit frustrated, but really, a newsletter about once
every three months is hardly communication with one's volunteers.
Twitter is available, so is facebook, so is this list. using it to
remind volunteers that wish List scans are done by staff and if there
are questions one should write to Volunteer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx is vital
information, IMO. <grrr> That was a good book, too. It was a star
Trek book, and I was interested in it. <sigh>
