Scans to locate for works we have

 * Beowulf
 * The Canterbury Tales
 * The Pearl (and related works)
 * Fanny Hill (text here as well)
 * Ecclesiastical history (Socrates)
 * The Garden of Proserpine (there's a reference to pdf in the failed FTC discussion) this one may be better

Texts I have Uploaded (or had others upload for me) to Commons for use at enWS
Some of these are duplicates of above, others have not been indexed, links are to Commons:


 * Three Books of Occult Philosophy (London 1651)
 * a translation from Latin by John French of the seminal occult work of the Renaissance by Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa.


 * Fourth Book of Occult Philosophy (London 1655)
 * a translation from Latin by Robert Turner of a collection of six books, two of which were ascribed to Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa


 * The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy (London 1774)
 * the original edition was published in 1747 and I'm still looking for a scan.


 * The Husbandman and Housewife: A collection of valuable recipes and directions, relating to Agriculture and Domestic Economy (Bellows Falls (Vt.) 1820)


 * Shaving Made Easy: What the Man Who Shaves Ought to Know (New York 1905)


 * A New Light of Alchymie (London 1650)
 * a translation from Latin by John French of a transitional work of Alchemy/Chemistry by Michał Sędziwój.


 * File:Betty Crocker's Cook Book for Boys and Girls.djvu (New York 1957) (copyright not renewed)

Work on getting specific texts
I'm working with Inductiveload to seek out and upload large numbers of ancient, medieval, and Renaissance texts, some of which are listed here:


 * User:Inductiveload/textids

Free e-book scans

 * The Getty Research Institute
 * The Internet Archive
 * Indiana University Digital Library Program
 * USDA National Agricultural Library
 * especially: USDA National Agricultural Library AGRICOLA search engine


 * British Library not sure if these are actually full text scans - need further investigation


 * Univ of Virginia Latin texts and English Translations of Ovid (annotations and commentaries too)
 * The Chymistrie of Isaac Newton Project Lots of references and scans, the copyright status of the manuscripts is somewhat unclear, I believe they are PD, but it's a more complicated analysis than one would think due to the publication date (apparently post 2002 - the significant date in the US) and complexity of determining which law controls, US or UK.
 * Alexandria (Va.) Library - digitized books
 * Forgotten Books These are folio editions of PD books; most have already been googled and may also be at Internet Archive.
 * Cornell Library/Worldcat
 * Hathi Trust Digital Libary


 * example of a work at the Walters need to figure out how these works are indexed.
 * Göttinger Digitalisierungszentrum (GDZ) - not quite sure what's available here and how to get it yet.

Needs a bot to effectively scrape but no membership or passwords to access scans:
 * Gallica Digital Library - bot for jpgs but also has PDFs
 * Library of Congress Digital Collections - bot for jpgs or tiffs (extreme quality), but also has pdfs
 * UPenn Libraries e-Resources (UPenn Libraries itself is not open)
 * http://sceti.library.upenn.edu/ljs/searchForm.cfm - you have to use the menus to identify works.
 * http://sceti.library.upenn.edu/sceti/furness/index.cfm?nav=furness
 * http://sceti.library.upenn.edu/sceti/smith/index.cfm
 * http://sceti.library.upenn.edu/sceti/civilwar/index.cfm

 * http://sceti.library.upenn.edu/sceti/advancedsearch.cfm
 * http://sceti.library.upenn.edu/sceti/printedbooksNew/index.cfm?TextID=hamlet_1676
 * http://dla.library.upenn.edu/cocoon/dla/schoenberg/index.html - no files that I can see, just info
 * ams historica (example work) - info is italian, need to be able to scrape jpgs here, there's apparently a way to get a djvu too but it requires a special plugin
 * Univ of Alabama (example work) - need to be able to scrape jpgs here, lots of metadata and a copyfraud claim too.

Bibliographies and link lists
These can be useful for locating texts or at least locating information on texts to identify targets to search via Google.
 * Gastronomy rare book list (no files here)
 * Kansas State (only excerpts and samples available here)
 * Esoteric Archives Lots of texts transcribed - not open license
 * - and their link page
 * a decent list of pamphlets that might be available elsewhere and are all PD
 * LOC rare books custom bibliography - at the Library of Congress of rare books, somehow related to cooking.
 * bibliography of 18th C. texts link farm, various topics - including brewing and cooking - indexed, many are links to non-free resources or to Google books, a few are links to free resources, such as Gutenberg.
 * Chemical Heritage Foundation Rare Books Collection - just samples
 * Restorers of Alchemical Manuscripts Society (R.A.M.S.) Digital Library - not free
 * Cookbook list not sure which are free but some are
 * British Library cookbooks - just samples
 * Alchemy Manuscripts at University of Glascow, I'm sure there's a lot more stuff here in many topics, just need to poke about.
 * ebrary there may be some free stuff here
 * Early English Books Online - not an open resource and I don't have an account
 * Sloane Collection British Library search engine for the Sloane Collection
 * All BL Catalogs
 * Alibris - just a rare book search, the books are for sale

Texts On WS that I find particularly intriguing
Maybe I'll work on them, maybe I'll read them
 * Index:The White House Cook Book.djvu via Mattwj2002 as of 2011-01-03 - no mainspace
 * The Gateless Gate
 * Index:Horse shoes and horse shoeing.djvu
 * Index:The duties of masters and slaves respectively (1845).djvu

Various pages I had an open tab on and couldn't figure out why later

 * Index:CromwellHugo.djvu

Pages on WS that I find particularly helpful
Examples, nice ways to do things, good style, etc.


 * List of Plants collected by the Officers, &c., in Captain Ross's voyage, on the coasts of Baffin's Bay - a good example of the use of versions
 * The Bell Buoy / The Bell Buoy (comparison) - an example
 * Quatrains of Omar Khayyam (tr. Whinfield, 1883) - good custom set up of a side-by-side translation of poetry - Inductiveload's work
 * Cinderella, or the Little Glass Slipper - layout of a book where many of the images are displayed, there's a pdf download available, and the page numbers have been set in the transclusion; also the "For other versions, see" is better than similar
 * Hudibras/Part_1/Canto_1
 * Index:The Cambridge History of American Literature, v1.djvu
 * Cartoon portraits and biographical sketches of men of the day
 * Page:Miscellaneous Papers on Mechanical Subjects.djvu/39
 * Index:Picturesque New Zealand, 1913.djvu - nice TOC - how was that done?
 * Sacred Books of the East - nice example of using a table for a listing of volumes of a multi-volume set
 * Works of Aristotle - another example of using a table for multi-volume set
 * The Roman Centurion's Song - heavily wikified text.

More versions:

 * Bible
 * Qur'an

Disambiguation:

 * Fables

Pages on WS that I find particularly unhelpful or problematic

 * Masefield
 * - duh - at the time I posted this here the article looked like this, the problem was with the sister link which was just plain dumb, this was an example of a systemic problem with sister links which has been largely - though not entirely - addressed.
 * The Wizardry of George H. Earle, Jr. - more duh - same as above, though this one hasn't been edited since January which disproves my belief that a bot had taken care of these sister links. In case someone changes this one by hand, it looked like this on 18 August 2011 when I made this note.
 * Sister projects - this is the reason for this section
 * Template:Cleaning/Category:Cleaning - do we really need this? See Template:Cleanup/Category:Clean up and also the link in the template to wp:cleanup, really?

Templates
Need image - created by me, I consider this the best
 * disambiguation
 * versions
 * translations - why? versions can or should be able to do all the same things, every translation is also a version but many versions are not translations and there are only 31 instances of this template in mainspace (vice over 200 of versions
 * similar - uggh!
 * Plain sister
 * Side by side
 * side by side pages - has trouble with display in template space
 * columns
 * {&#123;!&#125;} - was ist? and documentation sucks.
 * long s and ct - and do we need a template and  and other similar templates?
 * right sidenote - compare la:ws:Formula:Nota_marginalis
 * Ext scan link - pretty cool, output text may be able to be improved - used on only a few handfuls of pages but could be used more
 * Small scan link - also cool, output text is sort of redundant sounding - more used than the above
 * closed
 * Small scan link - also cool, output text is sort of redundant sounding - more used than the above

 * e.g. /Sandbox
