Ellen, Google Books are scanned as well, so are not 100% accurate. I would guess that this book just has some space that aren't wide enough for the OCR to determine whether or not they are supposed to be a space. What I would do is have a sighted person check a couple of the places where you have had an issue. If they tell you there are spaces between the words, I would assume that this book has weird spacing that the OCR has trouble with and you will have to fix it.

Hi group,I was working on scanning the book Stealing Lumby by Gail Fraser, and I’ve run into a sticky problem. In a number of spots, it seems like there aren´t any spaces between words. I checked on Google books, and it sometimes happens there too, though not necessarily in the same places. What should I do about this? For the moment, I’ve held off on scanning any more of it.Thanks for any help, Ellen
