This is excellent news--thanks for organizing it.  If it's just a matter
of archiving a scanned copy, I'd suggest archive.org which already has a
very large scanned book collection, an automated OCR pipeline, etc, and
is a download-friendly nonprofit with no advertising or user tracking.
Forth.org of course also has a lot of scanned Forth docs including some
books.  Even better would be a TeX conversion like the one for Starting
Forth, though that takes an awful lot of work which there might not be
enough appetite for.
