Hi Patti, The book's rating may change or may not. The bookshare site has a tool which assigns a proposed rating to the book. I believe that happens after you upload the book as valid, that is, after step 1 of the 2-part validation process. When a submitter uploads a book, the rating they assign is the one you see if you look on the step one download page. When you finish validating a book and decide to accept it, you upload the book and then you see a form. One of the items on that form is the text quality rating. and at that point, the rating you see is the one assigned by the bookshare automated tool. It may be the same or different from the one assigned by the submitter. You as the validator may change the proposed rating, based on your knowledge of the book's quality. Mary
