Hey Cindy,
I might be misinterpretting what you said, so if I am, my apologies in
advance.
You wrote about the VALID comment. VALID is the command the server/database
logs when a user approves a book (VALID=validated I'm assuming). So, VALID
doesn't have anything to do with something being correct or not.
HTH,
Jake
