Distributed Proofreaders is a volunteer driven website that is committed to putting Public Domain books online. OCR generated text is reviewed online and compared to page scans. Once the book has completed the proofreading process it is posted to Project Gutenberg where the ebook is available to the world for free.LinkOn April 6th Distributed Proofreaders posted it 4,000 ebook: "Aventures du capitaine Hatteras" by Jules Verne. Yes, it is in French. Come help us produce more free ebooks in more languages at Distributed Proofreaders. Proofread a page a day, that's all we ask.
