Hi Dan,
When the validation instructions talk about copyright it's generally in the
terms of making sure the book has one, and that it matches what has been
entered on the BookShare form. (You'll see this when you use the Step 2 Upload
process).
Sometimes however, Gustavo will ask for clarification on a copyright, or
validation of a copyright. That means there is something about the book that he
is questioning. This is generally the time to try a look up on copyright.gov.
Some volunteers do that as part of their regular processes, just in case. So
this is what the tip is aimed toward.
HTH,
Jake

Ok,
I have now learned something I wish I had been aware of from the start.
apparently copyright verification means verifying that the book has a copyright
included in it. If it does that is all that is needed for that step. I was
putting too much into it thinking I needed to verify that the copyright was
correct. I always seem to get myself in trouble when I think. ;-))
I'd like to request a change to the tips. Can we add to the copyright
verification step that we only need to check against copyright.gov if the book
doesn't include a copyright?
Thanks.
