I will, thought I would do it earlier but this spring has been a busy one and I just have not thought I had the time to devote to fixing what I can fix. Things are starting to slow down now, maybe I can actually do something eventually.

Most often what I end up doing is simply reading the book and correcting what scanning errors I find. All this about page breaks and line breaks can be important, but these are relatively rare issues. If you take on a book to validate and discover that it has some complicated problem that will make it a pain in the neck for you, you can always release the book and pick something else. All volunteers who validate books are really required to do is make sure the title, author, and copyright info are present, and try to see if the book is complete. I would encourage you to see if something on the download list interests you and give it a try. Despite all our finicking on here, it really isn't rocket science, at least not usually. <grin> Kellie
