I am pretty certain that I have submitted books in which the publisher was not on the title page, but rather on the copyright page, without it being returned for correction. I think most books do have the publisher name on the title page, but that is not necessarily universal.

Yes, it really should say on the title page, not on the first page. And it is not true, at least up until now, that the book will be rejected. I have
always received a note from bookshare telling me the book was returned to
the check-out page, and giving as the reason that the publisher was not
listed on the title page, which is not necessarily the first page.

John and Scott,

Here is a perfect example of the difficulty with navigating this online
manual.
When John said that the manual states that if the publisher is not shown on
the first page the book would be rejected, I out of curiosity attempted to
find the reference.  I spent far more than five minutes searching through
links to find that information and finally simply gave up. There should be a search box (or however you wish to phrase it) that would enable a user to find a word in the manual. I could have searched for {"publisher". I could not find what John was referring to, and then I could not easily get back to the section on what causes a book to be rejected in case the information was
in that section.
John, I was curious to find the reference because I have never shown the
publisher on the first page of a book I have proofread, and I have never had
a book rejected for not doing so.
So if this is a new requirement, I sure want to find it tomorrow, but for
now I'm frustrated and tired and done for the day! But now you have a real
life example!

That's why I asked. The manual also states that if the publisher isn't on
the first page the proof would be rejected.

Are you saying that we should copy the material from page 2 and move it to
page 1?  Why would we do that?  doing so would change the pagination of
the
book, which the manual states not to do.
The material should definitely be included, but shouldn't it stay where it
belongs?

John,

Actually the back of the title page is a treasure trove of useful
information for catalogers. Yes, it should be copied and included.

Hi everyone:

The book I am proofing does not include the publishers name on the title
page. It is found on page two. Should I copy and paste it on to page one
as well?
Thanks!
