The only problem with only telling the proofreader about the book that is being scanned is then someone else might not know it's being scanned and they may be working on it too, and duplicating efforts. Yes, you should check the being scanned list, but not everyone always (I'm guilty of this from time to time) does. Or another person may have it almost scanned and then they could say to the scanner, hey I've already got this almost done, please don't scan it. -- Jamie in Michigan Currently Reading: The BoneMan's Daughters by Ted Dekker Earn cash for answering trivia questions every 3 hours: http://instantcashsweepstakes.com/invitations/ref_link/49497 See everything I've read this year at: www.michiganrxtech.com/books.html
