Distributed Proofreaders Europe

Distributed Proofreaders Europe (often shortened to DP Europe) is a project dedicated to preserving European texts. Modeled after Distributed Proofreaders, DP Europe is hosted by Project Rastko, which receives copies of completed e-texts. Completed e-texts often are also submitted to Project Gutenberg or Project Gutenberg Australia, depending on the copyright status of the work.

History
Distributed Proofreaders Europe was launched in January 2004 as an offshoot of Distributed Proofreaders. With the launch of the DP Europe site, several enhancements were made to the DP software codebase, including notably the ability to proofread using UTF-8, which allowed a number of works based on languages with non-Latin-1 character sets to be more easily preserved.

As of December 2007, DP Europe has completed proofreading 482 works.
