If your purpose is to quote verses with verse numbers, you might want to make a note of how many chapters are in each book, and how many verses are in each chapter. You might also want to get a general overview for what each book is about. E.g. Genesis is about the start of the world of men, and the Revalation of St. John the Divine is about the end of that world.
As a tool, when looking for exact quotes, I use www.blueletterbible.org, or at least I use it when I'm near a computer.
Also, there are some threads in the forums here about how to go about flipping through books with very thin pages, such as Bibles or the complete works of Shakespere.
Please, keep us informed of your success at this endevor.
