I'm trying to say that I can mail a book to a member and that my book meets the RC, but the system isn't allowing me to accept. I click on the book meets RC button and nothing happens. The book is going out with another book but the one book got accepted yesterday and then I heard back from the person today that they want the other book (I posted it to their wishlist). I don't know if that makes a difference or not.

Any ideas? Glitch in system? Problem with my browser (latest version of Firefox)? Something needs to be cleared?

Ooops, I just posted a similar issue at the same time you were Barbara.  Right above you.

Yep and I just discovered I can't mark a book received either.

There is currently a glitch, it has been reported to Feedback and the tech folks are actively working on a fix.  Hopefully all will be back to normal soon.

I am seeing the same glitch on accepting a request.  Thanks for the post so I know it's not just me ;)

Yes, that is being impacted too, Mimi -- apparently a number of buttons aren't working, judging from the reports coming in through Live Help.  I've been told they're working on a fix as I type.
