Thanks for your assistance with this. Your advice helped a lot, and I'll be
more careful next time.
I actually looked it up on Amazon.com, which is probably not the approved
method, so I'll use the site you provided from this point on.
Thanks,
Nancy

Gustavo sometimes kicks back a book to the Step 1 page with a comment to
verify the copyright information when he's approving books. I can't tell if
this is Gustavo's work or not, but it looks like it probably was. It always
helps Gustavo when he's approving books if you verify the copyright information
and include that you have verified it in the comments when submitting or
validating a book. That way if he looks at the copyright and wonders if it's
correct, then he can read in the comments that you've already verified that it
is. It doesn't hurt either if you mention how you verified the copyright
either (i.e. having someone sighted check the book for you, verifying the
copyright through the U.S. Copyright office's website...).
If you are unfamiliar with the U.S. Copyright Office's website, you can find
it at the following address: http://www.copyright.gov/records/cohm.html. It's
a handy sight for checking copyright information.
Now, as for how to fix the problem with this book,
- redownload the book if it's still on the Step 1 page
- verify the copyright
- include in the comments that you have verified the copyright along with
information on the method you used to verify the copyright
- reupload the file you uploaded yesterday, the one which includes any
corrections you made during validation
Good luck,
Gerald

I validated a book yesterday, and saw it back in the pool today with the
following comments. Clearly, I made a mistake, but I thought I'd done
everything. The copyright information was on the book, etc.
Could someone interpret the following for me?
