2940313 I'd like to have my few copies of advance reading copies in my online library to reflect my actual library. I haven't found any ARC versions of the books that I have of them. I don't want to break any rules by creating that type of version. I cherish my few ACRs as much as some of my collectors versions of favorite books.

Is it possible to add a book cover photo after the version has been created?

Thanks for the feedback.

732709 I don't suppose there is any reason not to include ARCs. I would guess that if they have ISBN numbers, they'd match the hardcover or paperback they are proceeding. Therefore, it's important to include a note in the description to that effect.

Yes, librarians can upload a book cover after the record has been created. I'm not sure if non-librarians can alter a book record, even if they created it. Feel free to post in the Librarian's group if you need something added and don't have Librarian status.

2940313 I was noticing in one of the ARCs that there wasn't an ISBN assigned yet. There was an note pointing out that it would be placed appropriately upon publishing.

141804 Most of the ARCs I have don't have ISBNs and just note the ISBN that the published version will have. I did receive one a couple of weeks ago that notes both the published version's ISBN and the ARC's ISBN, which I thought was a bit strange.

I (personally) don't see any problem with adding ARC editions though, with or without distinct ISBNs. You can note it in the description, and in that shiny new "Edition" field too :)

Ah, yes. I have yet to use the new Edition field so I keep forgetting about it.

I'm glad for the reminder too. I'll have to remember to take a look at it and use it!
