Hi Carrie,
The computer rates the books when the validator accepts them. When the submitter submits a book, he/she chooses the rating for the book, arbitrarily. I'd be thrilled if, when submitting a book, the computer would rate it, and in the case of crummy scans, just reject them before they ever get submitted. 

Peace,
Mayrie

Mike,

I don't think the cornputer (deliberate--I'm feeling
silly--I wonder what was in the stuffing; or I could
say my em key disappeared )rates the book when it's
uploaded after validation. Either the submitter's
rating stays because the validator doesn't bother to
change it when uploading, which happens, or the
validator him/herself rates it.

Carrie or someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
