Kat (kate_schechter) | 39 comments Hi, this book (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...) has been incorrectly marked invalid in the past couple of days. I don’t see how to reset it as a regular librarian.

Book shows invalid here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Changelog shows it with classification “invalid” here, even though the book edit page says it’s Public: https://www.goodreads.com/book/edits/...

Martin | 35182 comments It shows as 'public' with status set by you. Maybe some pages took a while to update.

Tawnya | 4026 comments Last year the bots had multitudes of books as "invalid" on their show page, but public on the pull down. And like here, there was never an entry for when the bots did their misdeed.

This is just like when they changed scores of e-books to Kindles. We will be encountering books that have the banner for years.
