There is no Universal standard for title page format. The author and title
might come in any order, but be sure that both the title and author is
there. A page with just the title is probably a fly leaf that the publisher
chose
not to leave blank. It sounds like that among the garbled pages is the
copyright page. That must be included. If you can't find out any other way then
you should obtain a print copy to check and it might be necessary to type in
the information from that page. By the way, NW is one of our two jiffy
proofers. I wonder if this is an indication that he is a jiffy submitter too. I
think it would be a good idea to skim through the rest of the book before
going to the trouble of getting a print copy. It just might need to be just
rejected.

Dear Booksharians,
I am proofreading a book entitled Cold-case Killer: A Keely Moreno
Mystery by Dorothy Francis and submitted by NW. The first page has
gibberish text, the second page is blank, and the third page has more
unidentifiable text. Since the prologue is numbered as page 7, which
is actually the tenth page in the file, maybe deleting the three
unidentifiable pages wouldn't be a problem? Would it be all right to
delete these pages or should I leave them?
The fourth page has an excerpt from the book, the fifth page contains
a list of books by the author, and the sixth page contains the title.
Do title pages always have the title listed first proceeded by the
autror? On the title page of this book, the author is listed first. In
addition, only the first part of the title, Cold-case Killer, is
listed.
Finally, after the main text of the book (it seems to be complete),
there are six blank pages followed by a page of text with ISBN
information and advertisements, followed by a blank page. Page
numbering stops after 250, so the last eight pages are not numbered.
Should I leave the six blank pages? Maybe I need to get a copy of the
print book and see what is going on. Any help or suggestions would be
greatly appreciated.
Chanelle
