Volunteers are wanted to hand-correct pages of the online editions of
two of the major dictionaries on the early Germanic languages:

	An Anglo-Saxon Dictionary by Bosworth & Toller
	(1898, and 1921 supplement)

	An Icelandic-English Dictionary, by Cleasby & Vigfusson
	(1874)

The copyright on both dictionaries has expired.  The volunteer online
editions can be searched and downloaded.  You can use the
downloadable texts in any way you please: you can copy them,
redistribute them, create derived works, etc.

Corrections are done a page at a time.  There is a web-based correction
system which allows you to reserve and download a page, make your
corrections, and then upload your corrected text.

If you are interested in volunteering to correct a page, please go to this
web page:

Thank you in advance for your help!
