This thread has been created to bring together in one place how Lone Wolf fans can help Project Aon right now.
Past experience has shown that the main bottlenecks in the project are the OCR and proofreading stages. Both these functions can hold up work on editing a book to publication standards and therefore need to be completed--to a high standard--as soon as possible.
For Sommerlund and the Kai!

- Lone Wolf Newsletters:
This thread contains a list of pages from the Lone Wolf Club Newsletters that are currently incomplete or missing from the files released by Project Aon. If you have any of the LWC Newsletters, or if you now someone who does, please check to see if you have access to any of the pages currently missing, and if you do, please Contact us.Got 'em all! - Missing Illustrators:
This thread lists the artists we are in need of contacting. Currently, the only artist we are really in need of finding is Trevor Newton, as Jane Laycock's work for The Magnamund Companion has been reproduced with a calligraphic font. If anyone has any information on contacting Mr Newton, please Contact us, or post in the Illustrator Detectives thread. The New Order Books - OCRThe recent announcement by Joe Dever that Project Aon may publish his New Order books means that we are now in need of persons with access to the New Order books to scan the text only using OCR (Optical Character Recognition). As of the time of writing (11 July 2005) the first three of the New Order series are being scanned, meaning there are still five books requiring OCR. If you think you would like to help Project Aon in this way, please Contact us.
