When submitting a book, you can use the comments space for your comments. They
will go along with the book and will be seen by the proofreader. It's when we
proof a book and upload it for addition to the collection and want to tell the
reader things that we have to use a blank page at the beginning. When we upload
proofed books, he comments space only gos to the book share administrator who
approves the book finally (Carrie)
