Hi, Jamie, I'm so very, very sorry this book was so difficult for you. I can't
thank you enough for your patience and perseverance in this. I love these
books and wish they were easier to obtain and scan as they are such good family
stories. These issues make me afraid to even scan any book, whether old or
new, and I can't thank you enough and others willing to tackle classics as well
as new releases that are a challenge for whatever reason, but rest assured, you
made a fantastic story available to many people who otherwise wouldn't have
access to it. Have a blessed day and keep up your fantastic work.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Don't Call Me Katie Rose
Finally, I am done with Don't Call Me Katie Rose. I feel like it should be
titled Don't Scan Katie Rose. It was such a tough scan. I forced myself to
finish it tonight just because I am tired of looking at it! The book is so old,
the pages are dirty, the finding is sewn where I can see the sewing which means
the words are really close to the binding and I had to be so careful in
scanning to get all of the page or it would get lost in the middle. The print
is horrible, too many c's look like e's, the punctuation all wanted to scan
with letter space punctuation. Just a warning for whoever wants to proofread
it. I doubt it's going to be an easy proofread. I did as much work to it as I
could stand to do.
