Hi shana, If the page numbers skip but the story does not, then don't worry about it. Never mind the page numbers. Some were probably just missed when the ocr took place, not an uncommon occurrence. As for checking the copyright, you can probably find that at amazon.com by looking up the book's title and author. but if you don't have any reason to suppose its not correct, and what the submitter put is what is in the book, then that should suffice. And you don't need to mess with the isbn at all. Its not mandatory. You can often find those at amazon. But if there is more than one edition of the book, it can be tricky to figure out which one you have and which one you're seeing on the site. If the text is excellent, or you made it so by fixing it up, that's the big thing. I don't think the BookShare staff expects validators to double check copyrights with something like the Library of Congress. If the text scanned well, chances are the numbers for the copyright are ok. Mary
