I would copy all the relevant copyright and editor info from inside the
pamphlet in to the comments field. Say that you can't find and varify it
as you would a book, but what you have copied came directly from the
pamphlet, so there is no reason to believe it is not accurate. Request
that it be accepted with that info or rejected by admin, since nothing more
can be done. Things really do go through sometimes when you do this when
they didn't the first time, and if it doesn't it is off of your hands.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] I think I have to reject...
Hi volunteers:
I am trying to verify ISBN, copyright info and all editors names of a book
by request of admin. The book is not a "book", per ce, it's a pamphlet
regarding insurance plans and policies for those with genetic disorders.
However it was scanned for submission so I got it from step1 and admin
wanted me to verify all the above info.
I can verify the ISBN through a Google search but that is about all.
Because the book is not a "book", and because it was seemingly published by
a small entity, the US copyright office doesn't have it, isbndb.com doesn't
have it, I can't find it through our library. I cannot, in other words,
verify it at all. My husband, who is a search engine fanatic, did some
snooping and we cannot verify the copyright or publisher or editors.
Copyright and publisher info appear on the pamphlet's front page as do
editor names. But since admin wants it verified, and since I know I can't
do it to admin's satisfaction because I can't find it anywhere, I feel like
I don't have any ideas left, unless the magnificently wonderful and
spectacular Cindy has an idea. IN this case though, if it turns out I must
reject it, (I have it for six more days before it'll be put back on step1),
what would be the best reason to reject it out of the six or seven on the
form?
This book has been on the step1 page since I started volunteering and it
was scanned several months back.
I'd appreciate any help on this, since if I have to reject it, I'd like to
do it for the right reasons.
Shannon
