Great observations, Monica! smile.I don't announce on the list either when I reject a book. I hate rejecting a book because someone may be waiting for it, but validation isn't supposed to be cleaning up someone else's mess.

Judy, way to go! Actually, it's happening with fiction too. I've had to reject 4 books during the past month, and each one of them was obviously way too messed up to salvage. One book started on chapter six, and another wouldn't open at all. Each book had been taken by at least five different volunteers. What's even more frustrating is that these weren't new volunteers either. Regarding Elizabeth's comments about harsh treatment, I don't announce on the list when I reject a book. We used to have to do that because it took Gustavo several months to process books in the rejection queue, and we had no way to see that a book had been rejected. Now we can see the queue and can easily tell that books have been rejected. The way I see it is that the rejection of a messed-up scan is between the submitter, validater, Carrie, and maybe Pavi. Anyone else commenting is doing the equivalent of armchair quarterbacking since they haven't actually seen the file.
