I do have all of the title pages & verso pages submitted electronically. This is thousands and thousands of images.
Just email me if you need images for a particular item. If you'd rather, I could package up the older clearances (pre-August '04 or so) and get them to you. It's probably < 2GB total.
Thanks much for the offer. I've moved beyond cataloging onto the main part of my project. If I ever revisit the entire catalog, it would be great to have a DVD of all the title+verso pages (if they don't get posted somewhere in the meantime). Meanwhile, I may indeed make some one-off requests.
N.B., this stuff is not suitable for public redistribution with our eBooks. Many scans are not very high quality. Some are, and it would be fine with me to make them publicly available somewhere. I don't have much opinion about including these with the eBooks themselves - that's something for the producer to decide. Most title & verso pages are pretty boring, though, so probably are not worth including as part of an eBook.
I completely agree that there's no reason to include these in the default .zip file for the HTML or any other edition/format. I just think it's important to make them available somewhere people can find them, e.g. for librarians, scholars or other catalogers. -- Scott Practical Software Innovation (tm), http://ProductArchitect.com/
