Gathering donor information from reports

This project is simple to do. Each task is one page of the 1899-1900 annual report by the Egypt Exploration Fund. It lists the name of the donor and the amount that they gave that year. You can use any web browser to fill in the task. We are looking for the following information for each donor (if available):

Heading: These will be at the top of the page or group of names in a bold font. If no heading is given, please leave the space blank as it may be on a previous page. For each donor, the heading needs to be explicity written out (eg: don't use 'ditto').

Person or institution: For people, please include their salutation (eg: Dr. or Mrs.), forename and surname. For institutions, write what you see.

The amount donated: In pounds (£), shillings (s.) and pence (d.) or in dollars (Dols.)

Comments: You can make your own remarks here if you like and/or add further information about a particular donor you think is useful.
