Hi Nancy,

It's a bug in the new website that the engineers know about and are working
on.  Only books processed through Bookshare personnel coming from publishers
are supposed to get the publisher quality designation.  The new website is
automatically assigning the "publisher quality" rating to everything that's
coming in from volunteers.

For right now, the best us volunteers can do is change the rating to
"excellent" (or good if that's appropriate) when we submit. 
Smile.
