Hi, Bud,

Both submitter and validator can have their say. I
think some validators, especially newbies, don't
realize that they can change the rating, and some
submitters don't realize that if they don't put in the
qualaity rating the bookshare automatic rating is, or
used to be, Fair, which discourages many validators
from even taking the book.

When I submit a book (usually just occasional
children's books now that have to be typed because
they don't scan) I put the rating, and when I
validated I leave the rating if it's accurate or
change it if I've improved the book -- which is
usually the case, since I've been choosing to take the
worst ones.

Cindy
