I checked the collection to see if it was a HarperCollins donation but see
instead that it was a NY Times addition to the collection. Which means, I
suppose that in addition to checking the being-scanned list, and the
collection, and the books-in-process list, one should check the monthly NY
Times list that Carrie posts before scanning. I've downloaded a copy of May's
if anybody needs that info and didn't save it when she posted. I don't think
she remembered to post the April list, though--probably too excited about the
impending birth. smile
I guess it's impossible to avoid duplicated work entirely, but we can try. I'll
add the NY Times books to the being-scanned list. That will make one less list
for you to have to look at. As soon as I get it done this afternoon, I'll post
it, and then if there are more changes I'll post a new list int he wee hours of
the morning, as usual. smile
