Many times the official scorer has been supplied with the correct information prior to the 10 minute mark and when I go to check the book it is incomplete or has an error. I will then check the teams own book or other source that was supplied to see if that information is correct. Am I wrong in doing this?

The rule says that the information must be supplied, not put in the book before 10 minutes. So if you know a mistake has been made in the copying of the information, of course you should not penalize the team if the scorekeeper cannot copy correctly.
