Our latest Distributed Proofreading project is Midshipman Merrill, a naval adventure novel first serialized in the Good News story paper, later reprinted as a Medal Library dime novel, and finally reprinted in hardcover by Philadelphia publisher David McKay. By volunteering a little bit of your time, you can help the book make one more metamorphosis, into a freely-available eBook at Project Gutenberg!

If you want to help with the proofreading process, you can read our earlier Proofreading the Digital Library post to learn how the process works, and then you can join in the fun at the book’s project page!
