Scans available for EB1911 edit

Hi. While we welcome all contributions to Wikisource, we have been looking to undertake our proofreading and population of our pages from scanned pages. We do have the EB1911 scans available and a project that addresses the minutiæ of the transcription and formatting process You can read more at Wikisource:WikiProject EB1911. We have links to the scans of the volumes from those pages, though for the most recent volume where you are working the index page is at Index:EB1911 - Volume 28.djvubillinghurst sDrewth 04:11, 24 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi! Thanks for your contributions to the Encyclopedia Britannica 11th ed. If you could, please include a header with any future additions. I've added them to the pages you've done so far, you can look at those for examples if you need them. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Prosody (talk) 05:31, 20 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
