Herman Melville

I'd welcome some help finishing up Herman Melville's library if there are any takers out there. I can provide scanned images of pages (generally a single letter of the alphabet at a time although it may be less with really large ones like "S" and there may be a couple of letters together for smaller ones) to those helping if you will leave me a private comment on my profile with your e-mail address.

Would love to help! Leaving msg on your profile.

I'm almost half way through the Rs and I can't seem to add any books. There are good records, so I don't want to add manually when there are good records to work from. I've logged out as Melville, logged in as myself and I'm able to add away from records. After logging out as Melville, logged back in, same problem. No adding from records as Melville. So...... any ideas?

Works okay for me on a random add - what are you trying to add, and from which source?

The literary works of Sir Joshua Reynolds ... to which is prefixed a memoir of the author; with remarks on his professional character, illustrative of his principles and practice by Sir Joshua Reynolds (1855).

It's working now.

Herman Melville is now complete (although there may be a little cleanup to do). I'm not sure who the person who began the project was, but I thank cbl_tn and benjclark for helping me finish it.

Awesome! Just in time for SOTT, too :-)
