I could give my hand a t one and see how it goes from there. I have never edited someone else's scans, but I can give it a go. What kind of file would I be editing; would it already have been run though your OCR software and what do you use, if so.
I am excited about hoping to add these to the collection!

I would be glad to be part of the process if someone can provide the books for me to work with. We have only submitted books that Nichole needed for school or wanted to read for pleasure because my time is so limited, but I would be glad to work on this project if the books are supplied. I enjoyed them even far more than the Nancy Drew series, and that is saying something. :-)Valerie Check out my kids at: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/nicholemaples <new> http://www.caringbridge.org/ms/nicholemaples http://www.caringbridge.org/ms/cindymaples http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/jorgemaples On Apr 3, 2009, at 3:00 PM, Jamie Prater wrote:Hi, all, I have recently learned about a set of books about a nurse named Cherry Ames. One author started out writing them and then gave copyright to another author, so I'm not sure which author to list, but the NLS only has them in handcopied braille-- high demand, low quantity of copy, and when it's gone, it's gone, and hard records from way back, and they recalled their record players. This seems to be a really good set of books about a nurse. Some of the titles include Cherry Ames, Veteran nurse; Cherry Ames, Boarding School nurse; Cherry ames, Cruise Nurse; Cherry Ames, Jungle nurse, and there are several others. I think these would add nicely to bookshare and hopefully will be easy scans. Have a blessed day, thanks in advance, and happy scanning/ proofreading.
