The last post In the World of Binary Stars, completed the titles of Science for Everyone series that were accessible. When the original post was made with the listings we had listed 37 titles, out of which many are posted already. In this post I will make a stock of what has been accomplished and what remains to be done. Any inputs of how and where to get to the remaining books in this series would be greatly appreciated. This effort would not have been possible without all the people who have given their help, advise and support, mental, physical or otherwise. All credits to the respective, original uploaders! Thanks to all!!
The listing below is done year wise. The books that are with us are presented with links and the books that are not and are in red text and we need to get them.
Only 4 to go!
Update: Science for Everyone all files in one place here.

And again, we seem to have coincided nicely. My blog post in honor of Christmas was, more or less, Earth Sweet Earth. But there is so much more to say on the subject…and so much more to learn! I’m sure the book on the subject could much improve my education.

I need to set up a book scanner assembly, although I have a flat bed scanner.. thinking simple for now: glass and camera.. how can you help?
LikeLike
For now you may not need the assembly. A flat bed scanner is more than enough. Some post processing tools work like vodoo magic, especially scan-tailor. You may find some useful infomration here and here. I have used flat bed scanners all through, though at one point, I had taken up task to setup an assembly. But let it go, as the results from the cameras that I had were far from satisfactory. And of course there is DIY Book scanner.

Think it took me 6 hours today. 3 hours to scan (learnt that “custom scan area” works best on on my canon lide 90, since it does not have to traverse the whole length), then “Scantailor”, which is pure magic, but a bit of work since I needed to revisit each of 290+ pages in each of the 3 steps.. then adobe acrobat for combining the tiffs into pdf and adding OCR 🙂 Now where do I upload it?

Can you also upload some colour scans of the cover? So that we can put them in the post?
