Hi,
Thanks for the offer. We already have the raw text of all the books (scanned
and OCR:ed, and then cleaned up and "roughly" proofread). So the work that
remains for all books is thorough proofreading (called "Editing" in our
process), reviewing all the issues that's found, and implementing all the
fixes. Which sounds much simpler than it is...

and announce your willingness to take on a task. Do you also have the
World of Lone Wolf (Grey Star) books? We could do with another person
having a real close look at the text of War of the Wizards.
