May I volunteer to edit a text?

I am reading the English translation of Jules Verne's "Journey to the Center of the Earth" which you have posted on this web site.

Due no doubt to optical character recognition, there are a lot of pairs of words run together.

I'd like to copy out the text into my word processor and, with the aid of a spell-checker, insert spaces where they are needed to break up the word pairs.

Could I then re-submit the text to you to be posted on this site?

Feel free. Most texts are going to have little errors like that.

Hello

[riddler]

Admin - as an alternative, can we direct spelling and punctuation errors to an admin person or location, so that they can make corrections?

Perhaps we can create a forum for errors in the scanned text? We can post errors there and admins can correct at their leisure. I've noticed occaisional errors in the books I've read.

Thanks for the site, BTW.

[Admin]

There are too many errors for that I'm afraid.

My suggestion.....If you find a error and you want to edit the text copy it into Word, edit it, and then email it to admin. Would that work?
