Cindy, You're correct in assuming that validators are supposed to change
the ratings if that is warranted. No all validators treat the books as
thoroughly as you and I might. If the book has been substantially improved
by the validator, then the change should be warranted.

Jill,
One of us must be misunderstanding. I thought that
validators are supposed to change the quality rating
if what they do to the books changes the quality, and
that's what I've been doing. If the validator takes
the time to improve the quality of the book rather
than just does the minimum checking for copyright and
complete pages, it makes sense to change the quality
of the book. If the validator doesn't do anything more
than the minimum, I suppose changing the quality isn't
necessasry. I generally take Fair books and make them
excellent.
Cindy
