Jamie,

Are you sure you want to pick a PQ publisher's book?

Scott, I'm only going to pick one book because the book I want to pick is one I 
wanted to scan but it's so long. I've had the physical book in my hands for six 
weeks from the library (then I had to take it back) and I really think it's 
do-able. I do not think the pictures have to be described. It was a book that 
someone else asked if I would do and I said I would consider it after I could 
look at it. I would still do it except that it's over 1200 pages long.  I even 
briefly considered buying it and mailing it to Carrie to run through the high 
speed scanner but even used copies are over $20 plus shipping.

The book is:

Random House Webster's Unabridged American Sign Language Dictionary

by Elaine Costello

and the ISBN is:

978-0375426162

There are many of these books by her and one is in the collection, so if you're 
in doubt about whether the pictures need described, take a look at the one in 
the collection:
