I'm not sure that you can check the history if it is already in the collection. Might it be possible that it expired while it was being proofed and it was not renewed, so someone else got it? Could it possibly be -- since this was an inexperience proofer -- that the book was released without it being known that that action was being taken and someone else took it?

Wanda, this should not be normal procedure. Usually you receive an e-mail saying that the book has been returned for more proofreading or an e-mail saying that the book you have proofread has been added to the collection. You can check your account to see if you got $2.50 credit for proofreading the book, which seems unlikely after what you have described, and/or you can contact Carrie Karnos at Bookshare to ask about the problem.
I'm so sorry that this has happened to you on your first book!

Can you check the history link on the book and see what happened.  I think

Hello. I proofed my first book last month and did not hear anything back, so I checked to see if it was in the library, and it was there with someone else being the proofer of a, and it was there. Someone else was sited as the proofer. When I submitted the book I indicated that it was my first book and I would like some feedback, so if I made errors I would learn so that I may do it right, but no one ever contacted me. I have just submitted two more books I have proof read, but after seeing that I never got the credit and no feedback, I'm wondering if this is normal procedure? Considering the time involved, I would appreciate knowing if this is how things work. Thanks. I'm on digest, so can't respond immediately. Wanda
