Hi,
Sandy, that's a great idea. Even though there are a lot of PQ books
out there, there are still more that will never be submitted.
One question, with your suggestion, are you saying that if a proofer
or scanner likes a book that is not on the site, they contact a
scanner or prooffer to see if they will do it? I think that's what you
said but I want to clarify.
