Q: I published a free book, it said it was accepted, but I cannot find it in the store.  Why?

My students created their first iBook and wanted to publish it.  We went through all of the software and steps and finally received the message that the book was submitted.  It has been 4 days but we cannot find the book in the store to recommend to people.  Can anyone tell me what we are doing wrong?

iBook, Mac OS X (10.0.x)

Thank you.  The message was the one you get when you upload your package from Producer.  I did not know about iTunes Connect.  After going there I saw where the book isn't approved yet.  I accidentally submitted twice however and now trying to figure out how to get rid of one.  Any ideas?

    Message from whom?  

     

    Who took responsibility to open the free book account and upload the book..that person should have checked in their iTunesConnect> Manage your Books?  to see its current status. 

     

    If it is accepted and in the store...Go to the book store and search for the authors name.

    As your book is not yet accepted, its with the review team and your second upload should have replaced the  first.

     

    Wait a few days and keep checking in iTunesConnect.
