Watch out Cindy or the Harlequin Romance folks are going to start flaming (joke grin).


I would never say something about an individual scan. I know some books are just difficult to scan.

I am sorry I named names.

I would only say something if book after book displays issues.

I grew up before computers, before scanners, in the days when we paid folks to read and used reel to reel machines. Believe me when I say I will do everything I can to get a book into the collection.

One of the thinggs which will go far to improving the speed with which books make it into the collection is to read a couple pages of a scan.

I become concerned when the first five or so pages of a book are littered with "of die" "widdi die" and "1 am". (of the, with the, and I am.)
