The number of people who contribute to our library is tiny. While thanks are, of course, always nice to have, practical contributions really are the best way to way "thank you" and show that you mean it!

I appreciate what you're saying, Harry, and you have certainly contributed more than your share of ebooks to the library, but you need to remember that not everyone has your skill sets. Uploading an ebook to the Patricia Clark Memorial Library can be a daunting task. It requires people to know how to format, convert files, proofread; not to mention the need to know how to do copyright searches. It's not for everyone. Besides, many members are already doing quite a bit for MobileRead in other ways, and others already have a full plate and just don't have the time.
That being said, from someone who has only uploaded a couple of books to the library, thanks for all your hard work, Harry. It has not gone unnoticed nor unappreciated. You're a real trooper.
