Hi Cindy. Yeah, I really do like how they're doing the lists of books we've
scanned or validated. I'm finding some great books by exploring the lists of
books validated by people who worked on my scans. (smile)

Wow! Thank you, Monica. I found it.

Interestingly, the books aren't altogether, i.e., to
find the the books I scanned in the early days I had
to repeat the process clicking on my name there.

I noticed that now when one clicks on the title of a
book one can find out how many pages it is. That's a
nice touch, I think. The other thing I like about the
history is that when I try to think of a book I
scanned or proofread because of something someone
posted, like the Christian fiction books, I don't have
to mention on the list generally what it was about or
describe the author. I can scan the list until I
recognize the title.
