Hi, Mary and Bud. I don't see why it should be so difficult for us to know why our books are being rejected. I mean, as a validator, if we reject a book, there are check boxes to state why we're rejecting the book, so it shouldn't be too difficult to implement something. Just me thinking out loud. *smile* Take care.

But I certainly agree that a notification as to why the book was rejected would be a huge help. You might want to check the listings to see if those things you submitted exist already. If not, then you could doublecheck that you had included copyright material and that the books are complete, then resubmit them even including a comment in the comments field when you upload stating that you'd submitted these and can't see why they were rejected. Even if they exist on bookshare already, if yours have better text quality, there's nothing saying you can't resubmit them with a note to the affect that you're submitting copies whose text quality is better than those already in the collection. mary
