Or you can come to my rescue if I decide that cataloging is for the birds.

Did I snatch this away from you? I won't mind if you want it back.

No no, it's fine -- I outsource my cataloguing anyway.

Hi Laurie Anne,

Welcome to the Anna and Gary Book-a-Month Club. We do move rigth along

Yes, we do need server space please.

And thank you Cori for the moral support.

There is no way we should be able to get this book up before July 4th, but we are going to try anyway. And if we miss, there is not much harm done.

I will get at least one section posted within 24 hours so we can see how it will go.

Off to the races,

A book a month? Sounds about right to me.

I've set up a BenFranklin folder on Anita's server, under chocoholic. File locations should be: http://www.studioae.com/LibriVox/chocoholic/BenFranklin/yourfilename.mp3
so of course let me know if links aren't working at that address.

Give me a shout if you need anything else!
