I am really shocked at what isn't available at the library! There is
absolutely nothing there by June Masters Bacher, which is surprising since I
know she has written several books. I did add about 40 something more to the
list though. LOL
On another note, it doesn't appear that the Joyce Meyer book has footnotes
from what little I looked at it. I think the scan turned out quite nicely
compared to another book I submitted recently which did have several
footnotes more towards the back of the book. Talk about some major editing.

Hi, the books you may scan or want to scan or have on your list will be
great, too, so don't ignore them for my list. There are many of us out
there who like the things like you have submitted and will submit plus the
authors I've mentioned. I failed to mention T. L. Osborn as another author.
There are definitely some fantastic proofers and scanners of all types of
Christian fiction and nonfiction. We can always use more, so tell your
friends if they want to help. I consider this a ministry. Right now, there
are only four Joyce Meyer books on bookshare that I know of. They are life
in the word, a book about peace, the battlefield of the mind and one other
one I don't remember. You might want to do an author search of her. I love
her teaching and books when I can get them. I love the writing of Jenkins
and LaHaye and we all will welcome anything, and I do mean anything in the
Christian fiction arena. Keep the fabulous work coming everybody.

Jamie, I will keep this list of authors. I have a list of books I've created
on my library's site of those I would like to check out and scan. The
majority are Christian fiction and nonfiction books, so I will look some of
these authors up to see what I can find. I can tell you that my library has
a ton of Joyce Meyer's books, and most are already on my list to eventually
check out and scan.

Hi, I'll certainly take a stab at it. I'll also do the heaven book if
nobody does it. I want more titles in the collection by Joyce Meyer,
Kenneth and Gloria Copeland, Charles Capps, Marilyn Hickey, John Hagee--not
sure of the spelling, Mark Hankins, Lester Sumrall, Kenneth Hagen, Jerry
Savelle, Jessie Duplantis--not sure of that spelling, either. Rick Joyner,
Rick Roener--not sure of that spelling, T. D. Jakes, Juanita Bynum, John,
Doddie, Joel, and Victoria Osteen, Charles and Frances Hunter, John Maxwell,
Bob Jones, Benny Hinn, Keith Moore, and many other such authors. I made my
requests known on the lists back in August and even copied and pasted my
requests from a friend's book list into a message that was supposedly put on
the wish list, and based on the format of the wish list, I'm not sure if
they were or not. Also Tommy Tinney and John Avanzini and Jentezen Franklin
and John and Lisa Bevere and Creflo Dollar and Larry Lee and Rod Parsley and
Larry Hutton and many such others. I also would like to see more Christian
fiction like Grace livingston Hill, June Masters Bacher, Linda Nicholson,
and others. Many of these authors and others are listed on bookshare, but
they may only have one book by the authors and they may have written 10, 20,
50, 90, 100s, who knows. There are over 42 books in the Mandie
series--which I've proofread and helped to get into the collection, but even
with all our efforts, I'm not sure we even have half the books. I was told
we had authors like I mentioned, but I know for a fact that Grace Livingston
Hill wrote at least 100 books and bookshare has about 10. I deeply admire
the brave souls who put this kind of stuff up, and I have a few entries of
my own, but based on all the discussion lately, I'm actually afraid to
submit anything. I'm glad you are thorough and read what you submit. It
pays off in the long run. I admire Laura Ann, Linda, Monica, Angela, and
Alyssa and many more who continue to put Christian literature out there.
Keep up the fantastic work. Have a blessed day.

If it doesn't have footnotes, do you want to proof it? I'm about to let
Kurzweil recognize all the page images, so I can let you know later this
afternoon. I'll also read it before submitting it to make sure there's
nothing seriously wrong with it. I'm actually glad I love reading. I was
going over something else I scanned last night and realized that somehow I
skipped over two pages.

Hey, sounds like you're scanning some great things, particularly the Joyce
Myer book. I'd offer to proof that, but I don't know if it has footnotes
for Bible references or anything like that. Keep us posted on your
progress.

Hi.
I'm now scanning the following:
The Word, The Name, The Blood by Joyce Meyer
and
Holding Heaven by Jerry B. Jenkins
Holding Heaven should be an easy proof. It's only 90 pages long, and several
pages are blank or have illustrations on them.
There is a third book I plan to scan. I'm not sure if this title is totally
accurate since the book is not in front of me right now, but it's something
like The Joy of Encouragement by David Jeremiah.
