When you say "contents", do you mean "the story text of the book", which is the problematic IP?
It appears that there is great confusion/caution about what precisely MobileRead would consider in violation of the forum guidelines.
What I would like to hear

is that the (story) text of the book is a problem, but Title, Author, ISBN, Table of Contents, and other identifying information that does not
help someone read the story they aren't entitled to, is not a problem (or at least is covered under "Fair Use").
More than that might end up being scrambled, at the discretion of @jackie_w, but this is the only part that is absolutely required by MobileRead.
Or so I hope.
MobileRead has always allowed short extracts under fair use, at least -- right???
