Two days before your validation time expires you should get an email reminding you to renew it. You renew by logging in to your account and going to step two. There you just click the renew button. However, if you are going to download a book for validation and just forget about it then it would be better off with another validator. I think that is why they expire after a week in the first place. In a message dated 8/20/2008 8:14:21 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, julia.kulak@xxxxxxxxxxxx writes: Hi people. I've heard so much about valadating that now I'm curious. Firstly, the reason why I haven't done it before is because I'd pick a book that I wanted tor ead, forget all about it, and then find out that it was back on step one and that I'd lost it to a more conscientious valadator. How do I keep the book I'm working on? Is there any right way to clean up abook. Does it talk about valadating in the manual or something?
