The X indicates which books are not yet in the collection which means they 
would need to be scanned.

  Carrie,

  Would it be possible to post the books that need to be scanned?

    I wasn't going to mention it, but since you asked...

    Of the 77 books in Maithe's original list, we have 28 in excellent 
condition, 5 in good condition, none in fair condition, and 44 are not in the 
collection.  So we have 33/77, which is about 43%.  I'd love for the rest of 
them to be added.  The one I'm really embarrassed about not having is The 
Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman.  I'll get it with my next amazon.com order 
if no one else does first.
