Dear Volunteer list,
I found a book to proofread that is published by ibooks distributed by SIMON ft
SCHUSTER, INC. Simon Schuster is listed as one of the "do not use" publishers.
However, I did not see an imprint called ibooks. Pocket Books is also listed,
which is a "do not use" imprint. Originally, I thought that this was an ebook
until I looked up the ISBN and found that it corresponds with a paper back
edition. The book is entitled The Crossing by Howard Fast. What is somewhat
confusing is that a page in the front matter states that the book is an
original publication of ibooks, inc. It is copyrighted by Howard Fast with the
dates of 1971 and 1999. I am fairly certain that I should reject this book;
however, I don't want someone's work to be easily set aside until I am sure.
Chanelle
