So using this particular author as an example, say I wanted to create ebook versions of his works. I'm looking for a general outline.
1. Research copyright. How? Where? Tools, databases of works?
2. Find content. What sites? Do any of you scan/OCR your content?
3. Format as ebook. I know there are tools/tutorials here, I can research that.
4. Upload

It's a PDF customized for the Sony Reader. You don't get the possibility to change the font size, but you get better typography (hyphenation).
For this particular example, this author is available on PG. I don't think anyone really scan/OCR/proofread all by themselves here. Some might be some proofreading for Distributed Proofreader or before creating an e-book version, but I haven't met anyone doing the whole process on Mobileread.
