Hello list friends,

I am writing to report the latest exciting NFBF Newsline ® happenings. We 
are still #1 in subscribers with the help of our Talking Books libraries 
throughout Florida signing up over 200 new members per week. This of course 
means followup with welcome letters and phone calls to make sure our users 
are using the program. I am very thankful for the librarians and all their 
help and enthusiastic support of the Newsline ®service.

On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week, Kirk Harmon and I will be 
attending a meeting of the senior Triad organization. This is a national 
conference being held in Orlando. The Triad is a service group of police and 
sheriff's departments throughout the United States who assist seniors in 
making their lives easier by among other things supporting a cell phone 
redistribution service so that seniors have access to cell phones for 
emergency services. They also support other efforts for seniors throughout 
the country. Kirk Harmon has been a member of the local Triad for several 
years and joined to help spread the word about Newsline®. I am very grateful 
to him for giving me the lead about this conference and for making the 
necessary contacts to assure our participation so that we can acquaint 
others with the Newsline ®service and I also appreciate his help at the 
exhibit table this week.

If any of you are not currently using Newsline ®and would like to know your 
ID numbers and password to get into the service, or if you have any other 
questions,please do not hesitate to contact me. My information is below my 
name on this e-mail as well as links to learn more about Newsline®.

I will keep all of you informed as to up-coming exciting developments in 
Newsline®.
