Dan, Did you read your entire rejection notice? As I recall, I'm the one who rejected your first copy. The reason for the rejection was explained in the comments which should appear further down in the message. If I'm remembering correctly, I rejected it because you uploaded two copies of the book minutes apart. I rejected one to prevent the book from being validated twice. I still see another copy of the book on the Step 1 page with you as the submitter. That copy was submitted back on Sept 18. So while one copy of your book was rejected, another is still waiting to be validated, and there's no need to worry. There's also no need to submit it again since it's already on Bookshare awaiting validation.

The first book I submitted, "For Common Things: Trust, Irony and Commitment in America Today" by Jedediah Purdy was sent in 3 weeks ago. I received an email telling me the book had not been accepted because it already exists on Bookshare. Try as I may, I can't find the book either under title, keyword or author. It was a NY Times bestseller a few years ago. I've always wanted to read it but it was only available in braille on Talking Books. Of course, I've now read it because I scanned it in via Kurzweil. I've sent to emails to Bookshare, one to the volunteer email list and other to support but haven't heard anything. What could be going on? Thanks, Dan
