Seeking Group Admins

As you may have heard, we are trying to find admins for the orphaned groups. This talk topic explains more: https://www.librarything.com/topic/328882

In short, the administrator can:
* Rewrite the group description
* Change basic group parameters, like whether the group is open or closed.
* Add and remove group pictures
* Create "pinned topics" that stick to the top of the group page
* Get notified when new members come to the group, so they can say hello, if they want to
* Open up the group for new admin applications and appoint new admins

Consider this an invitation to discuss how many admins you think the group needs and to volunteer yourself (or someone else!).

Are you getting anyone interested?

>2 sdbookhound: So far it's only been someone who is happy to help, but hasn't been active in the group. This group seems to run very well, and I think the admin would really just be there to make sure the description stays up to date, etc. I think this volunteer would be fine, but I leave it up to the group to decide if you wanted someone who had not been a frequent participant to be the admin. I'll ask the volunteer to pop into this thread, too.
