He'd really like to get these into the collection. I can't take them on myself, because right now I'm having some additional physical problems that are limiting any time I can spend using my computer. However, I downloaded both books to look at them, (and then released them back to the checkout queue) as Gary was worried there was some problem with them that was stopping them from getting proofread. Both books are truly excellent scans, with no scanning problems. The first is "The Wolfman" by Johnathan Maberry, and should be a straightforward proof. It's a novelization of the 2010 version of the horror movie, The Wolfman. It's 345 pages long. The second is a super nice scan of a history book, "The Real George Washington (American Classic Series) by Andrew M. Allison and Jay A. Parry. It's really big (almost 1000 pages), but the great quality of the scan should make this book straightforward to proofread. Also, the content on each page isn't large; it's more like the amount of text per page that you'd find in a trade paperback. The main thing a proofreader is going to have to do is strip running headers and look though it for minor scannos. The book has footnotes, but all the footnote numbers scanned correctly from what I see and the footnotes themselves are published grouped together in pages at the back of the book, instead of at the bottoms of pages, making it much easier to proofread. If you can help Gary out, it would be really appreciated! smile. Both books are currently on the checkout list. Judy s.
