No, in this particular case, you can remove the hyphen. Just as we join parts
of a word that are split between pages. That is standard procedure, always has
been as far as I can recall.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] not changing what's in print book
I know we're not supposed to change anything , errors in spelling,
punctuation, et al in the print book; I gather whether it's the author's or
publisher's; so if the print book hyphenates a word at the end of a line we
should keep it that way rather than eliminate the hyphen and reunite the
parts of the word, rather than make the word whole? I did that with
Bac-trian which later appears as bactrian but now I have egu-larly which
the scanner made regularly; my personal opinion is that keeping so strictly
to the print page when it's the publisher's or printer's effort to make the
page fit ( and I was once a proofreader and for a publication is carrying
verisimilitude a little too far; however, I will continue to do so and will
change regularly to regu-larly if I must
