Hi

If you want i can provide more books for getting in the app. During corona i scan all my books, and have them in pdf. But i don't now how i can make them ready for the app. I scan hole my theocratic library. I think i did it for more than 500 books. Most in Dutch but also in English. Could we do somethin with this....

Kind regards Tom

Hello @TomVanReeth

Thank you for your offer.

The issue/difficulty is not so much in obtaining the material. It's just that PDF's or other scanned images, even if processed through OCR, are difficult to work with. They (most likely) contain errors (from the OCR process) and have no formatting markup.

Hi Eryk,

I’m my books transfering into html and epub file.

Is that something to handle?

Kind regards,

Tom

Tom, before you get too excited :-)

I won't include publications that I don't feel would be very useful to me. If there is a book you think would be a good add-on for JW Library, convice me ;-)

Let's put this on the back-burner for now. I wouldn't be able to handle another project at the moment. Thank you for your willingness to contribute material :-)
