Our latest Distributed Proofreaders project is a juvenile mystery novel: George Barton’s The Mystery of Cleverly, first published in 1907.

With a winter storm on the way, now might be the perfect time to curl up with a virtual book and help convert the scans of this long-forgotten work from our Digital Library into a new electronic edition on Project Gutenberg. To learn how it works, you can read our Proofreading the Digital Library blog post. When you’re ready to join in the work, you can visit the project page for an assignment!

We’re also open to feedback on what we should run through the process next; if there are any books in the collection that you’d like to see which haven’t received the proofreading treatment yet, feel free to leave suggestions in the comment section here!
