Thanks for your help, as always! I'm hoping that lots of people will enjoy
this, if and when I ever complete it! What a project! I'm glad the person
who requested Larry and I do it isn't in a hurry for it! The scan turned out
quite well, thank goodness! I have no idea of how long this one will take to
proof!

HI Susan,
You're welcome! Happy proofreading!
Also, I sent a message that I think went astray about another message you
sent.
Your question was about the book you're proofreading being an encyclopedia,
and should you bother with proofreading it? I think the advice that
encyclopedias were/are not acceptable for some reason applies to
multi-volume sets of books, not books that are called an encyclopedia
because they are supposed to be comprehensive single volumes of information
covering a topic entirely.
I'd wait for Carrie's word on this to be sure, but I'm almost positive that
you are working on a book that is fine for the collection, and the
prohibition is on books that have more than one volume to them.
Hope that helps a little.
Happy proofreading! That's a huge book you're tackling! I admire people
who don't just curl up and whimper about long books like that as I do.
Mayrie

Hi Susan,
If I'm understanding properly, the name of each radio show is essentially a
chapter. Is that correct? If that's the case, I'd bold and enlarge the
title of each radio show when it acts as a title of a chapter just as if it
were a chapter title.
Or did I completely miss the boat on what you're asking?

Hi Everyone,
I am beginning to proof a book describing various old time radio shows.
There are no chapters and each show is presented one after another. How do I
'format this in points so it can be navigated with Daisy? Hope this makes
sense and I look forward to your help! Thanks in advance.
Susan, Feeling Puzzled About This one
