-  ? 2007-07-16:
-    :: Thanks to the generous efforts of about three dozen volunteers over the last 18 months, we've released onto the Internet more than [[.:scribe#released|50 Dhamma books]]. As you might imagine, managing a project like this takes considerable time and effort. **The time has come for me to take a breather, and I am suspending this project until further notice.** I will continue adding new Dhamma books and sutta translations to the website, but at a much more leisurely pace, and not as part of a large coordinated project.
-The //Path of Purification//, so ably transcribed by a group of 19 volunteers, is now in the hands of the BPS, which will assemble those transcriptions and proofread them, in preparation for the book's reprinting sometime in the next year or two.

-====== 1. Background ======
-<span anchor #background></span>
-<dl>
-  ? What it is &nbsp;<a title="Go up" class='back' href="./scribe.html#background" name='whatis' id="whatis">&nbsp;</a>
-    :: Begun in the spring of 2005, The Dhamma Transcription Project formalizes the //ad hoc// transcription procedures that I've been following over the past few years. The aims of the project are threefold:</p>
-  -- //Accessibility:// to transcribe into digital form high-quality free Dhamma books that have been previously published but which are out of print or otherwise hard to find, and to distribute those transcriptions freely via the Internet;
-  -- //Learning:// to give volunteer transcribers the opportunity to study Dhamma by immersing themselves in good Dhamma books that they might not otherwise have the time to read;
-  -- //Service:// to give volunteers the opportunity to contribute their time and energy for the benefit of other Buddhist students and practitioners around the world.
-<div class="shaded" style="margin-left:20%;margin-right:20%">
-//Access to Insight only distributes books for which the copyright holder explicitly grants permission for free online distribution.//
-</div>
-  ? How it works &nbsp;<a title="Go up" class='back' href="./scribe.html#background" name='howto' id="howto">&nbsp;</a>
-  :: <ol class="nospace">
-<li>I am always on the lookout for high-quality free Dhamma books, articles, and translations &mdash; especially those that are difficult to find in print. If a book seems especially suitable for distribution on Access to Insight, I contact the copyright holder (usually the author or publisher) and request permission for the book to be transcribed and distributed online. If the copyright holder grants permission, I add the book to the [[.:scribe#seekscribe|list of titles awaiting transcription]].</li>
-<li>You choose a book from [[.:scribe#seekscribe|the list]].</li>
-<li>If you don't own a copy, I send you a photocopy (yours to keep).</li>
-<li>You type or scan the book and spell-check it using your favorite word processor.</li>
-<li>You send the file to me via e-mail.</li>
-<li>I do the final proofreading and formatting of the book and eventually release it on Access to Insight.</li>
-</ol>
-<p>There are no strict deadlines. You decide how fast you want to work &mdash; take a week or take six months; it's up to you. For details on the procedures, see "[[.:scribe#instructions|Instructions for transcribers]]."</p>
-  ? Instructions for transcribers &nbsp;<a title="Go to top of page" class='back' href="./scribe.html#top" name='instructions' id="instructions">&nbsp;</a>
-  :: <dl>
-  ? 1. Choose a book.
-  :: From the [[.:scribe#seekscribe|list below]], choose a book, and [[.:faq#contact|tell me]] which one you'd like to transcribe. If you do not own a copy of the book, please send me your postal mailing address, and I will send you a photocopy of the book (yours to keep). I'm happy to send it to you anywhere in the world. If you do own a copy of the book, please let me know which edition you have. If this is your first transcription for Access to Insight, please choose something relatively short so you can get the hang of it //(Bodhi Leaf// Publications are good starters).
-  ? 2. Transcribe it.
-  :: Use your favorite word-processing program to type in the book (feel free to use a scanner, if that's helpful). Don't spend a lot of time making the layout and formatting look pretty (most of the formatting will be removed anyway); just type in the basic text, keeping just the minimum necessary formatting details (italics, footnotes, headers, etc.). If there are a lot of Pali words, please follow the [[.:abbrev#velthuis|Velthuis convention]] when typing them in. (Please note that the niggahiita //m// is sometimes represented in older books with a dot //over// the //m//. In these transcriptions, however, we'll be representing it with the dot //under// the //m//. Hence, please use //.m// for this character.) Spell-checking and proofreading is, of course, gratefully appreciated. To summarize:
-<dl>
-  ? Please pay attention to these:
-  :: Italicized text, bold text, footnote numbers, Velthuis spelling of Pali words, spell-checking.
-  ? Please do //not// worry about these:
-  :: Font or font size; ornaments (drop caps, dingbats, etc.); footnote formatting; hyperlinks; page width; text flow; text justification; spacing between sentences, lines, or paragraphs; page numbers.
-</dl>
-<p>Please take your time to enjoy the process and to give yourself a chance to learn a little Dhamma as you transcribe. Although there are no strict deadlines for this project, if you think you may need more than a couple of months to complete the transcription, or you if you run into unexpected delays along the way, please [[.:faq#contact|drop me a note]] to let me know. If at any point you run out of steam, or you're just not enjoying transcribing the particular book you chose, that's perfectly fine &mdash; just [[.:faq#contact|let me know]] and, if possible, send me whatever you have completed. Any little bit that you complete is valuable and greatly appreciated.</p>
-  ? 3. Send me the file.
-  :: [[.:faq#contact|Send me the file by e-mail]]. Please let me know to what extent you'd like to be credited for your work. Although I like being able to give transcribers credit (e.g., "Transcribed from the print edition by Susan Q. Scribe"), many prefer to remain anonymous ("Transcribed from the print edition by a volunteer"). I guarantee your privacy; I will //never// include e-mail addresses or other contact information in the credits.
-  ? 4. Be patient.
-  :: It usually takes me a month or two to finish proofreading and formatting the book before I actually release it on Access to Insight. You can [[.:scribe#formatting|follow the progress of your transcription]] as it moves through the proofreading/formatting stage.
-  ? 5. Anumodana!
-  :: This Pali word is difficult to translate into English, but it means something along the lines of "May the fruits of your skillful action be of benefit to all beings everywhere!" You can think of it as a Buddhist way of saying "Thank you for the good you have done." <span small>[For more on this, see "[[en:lib:authors:khantipalo:wheel206|Anumodana]]" in //Lay Buddhist Practice// by Bhikkhu Khantipalo.]</span>

-<p>The books listed below are ready to be transcribed. If you'd like to transcribe one, please read "[[#howto|Instructions for transcribers]]," above.
-Please note that although I've indicated the relative difficulty you may expect in transcribing these books, even the "easy" ones pose challenges. For one thing, these books were typeset by hand and printed in Asia very inexpensively, with the result that the print fades in and out and they can sometimes be a little hard to read. Transcribing one of these books is not simply a matter of zipping it through a scanner and then doing a light touch-up with Microsoft Word. This is especially true for books containing Pali text &mdash; the Pali diacritics will bring even the cleverest OCR software to its knees. Depending on its length, you can expect to spend many hours on a given book.</p>
