I'm sure it's a scanning error that wasn't fixed by the proofer. Is the book
already in the collection? How manay books is it in? If you can get the books
put on the download list I'll fix it for you, or ask Carrie what can be done
about it, or fill out a quality report. Are there Spanish-languge books with
that circumflex? I proofed a book with a lot of Spanish language in it but
don't remember having to use the circumflex, just accent and grave.
