All this makes for a not very coherent, consistent editorial policy. I guess literature people can easily criticize the PG French catalog (some very obscure books, and some blatant misses).
There's a case to be made that those obscure books are exactly the ones that need scanning and archiving most badly. I'm sure cheap copies of classic works will always be relatively easily available, but who is going to reprint all those long-forgotten authors whose works are wasting away in attics and recycle shops? I'm all in favour of getting more obscure books into PG. To me PG is a museum as much as it is an archive. Miranda
