ok,
now i'm writing on company time.
that message came out disasterous.
Always read your messages before sending!!!!
i said marissa's list is a 3 part list.
1. books people are vallidating, 2, books gustavo is validating and 3. a list
of that days step 1 page.
i put that at the bottom since any volunteer can log in and see that where the
other 2 lists need to be generated by bookshare.
hope this came out better
