Project Description:

MUST KNOW BOOKS. GOOD SPELLER. FAST TYPE.
This job will be ongoing until we finish our 200,000+ inventory, possibly more.
We are a local library that is converting their inventory into electronic form.

We have 200,000+ books to put in an Excel spreadsheet and we will be doing chunks of 2000 at a time. Every book in the library is photographed and each book has 4 pictures. You will be given a link for a high resolution photo album where all the pictures are listed. One or more pictures contain the information that goes inside the spreadsheet. You must be able to look at the pictures and extrapolate the information from them, for example:

- SKU/ISBN
- title of the book
- subtitle of the book
- year of publication
- publisher name
- illustrator name
... And so on.

There are in between 10 to 15 fields to fill out for each book.
You will be provided a list of possible categories and you must be able to pick a category for the book. For example Art, History, Biographies and so on. Assign each category to each book at your discretion, but the category must be correct or close.

There is no time limit for this one. If it takes you 3 days or 2 weeks that's fine.
First batch will be reviewed for accuracy. No misspellings are tolerated, sorry this is all about spelling and accuracy. You can mark a field as "not sure" and we will fill it out for you.

Lowest bid gets the job.
