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.

surprised at how many of these books are in the Bookshare collection; I know
I recognized a number of them.
