I don't think either of these books have been released yet. I've only seen books sites with them as pre-orders still...I know sometimes you can find pre-release book covers, but I'm guessing not always.

2133220 i just added a new edition for The Adventures of Robin Hood. I added a page cover to the edition but it's not showing up. Does it take a while for these to show up?

171430 You did not successfully upload a cover, according to the log.

I found one.


message 207: by Donna (new)

2133220 i'm sorry, i hope i'm not being a bother, but i'm a little confused.

When i created the new edition of robin hood it was for an mp3 version. There was already an audio cassette version in the editions. Now there is just one entry for audiobook? Are all forms of audiobooks being listed as one entry? And are eisbn's being recorded anywhere? The isbn number that is listed for this recording is listed under isbn13 on the combined listing.

I also entered the narrator as a second author and labeled it as narrator and it his name isn't on the listing either.

The entry on netlibray for the book is below. The narrator was Dan Elsea.

The cover that is shown for the audio book is for a cassette version. The cover i tried to upload was a different one and is generic. I'm not sure why it didn't upload since the program said it found it on my computer. Anyway this is the image location on netlibrary - i tested the link and it does work.
http://a1835.g.akamai.net/f/1835/276/3h/...

The information from netlibrary is below:
Publication: Charlotte Hall, MD, [Boulder, Colo Recorded Books, 1980.
Subject: Robin Hood (Legendary character)--Fiction.
Robin Hood (Legendary character)--Legends.
local--Downloadable audio books.
Downloadable audio books. Language: English
Duration: 3 Hours 54 Minutes
Product ID: 121202
EISBN: 9781417553204
ISBN: 9781556900037

thank you very much - i really do hope i'm not a bother i'm just trying to understand and get it right :)

171430 Th MP3 and the audio cassette shared an ISBN, so yes, I combined them.


message 209: by Donna (new)

2133220 okay, so is it not possible to get the narrator on the listing? That is important information for an audiobook.


message 210: by rivka, Volunteer Mod (new)

171430 Oops, sorry. Fixed.


message 211: by Donna (new)

2133220 okay, so can someone explain to me the difference between isbn, isbn13 and eisbn? The cassette had the isbn of the mp3 listed in the isbn13 area. Are the ibsns interchangable for audiobooks?


message 212: by rivka, Volunteer Mod (new)

171430 I have no idea what the eisbn is. All books currently have both an ISBN-10 and and ISBN-13, which are convertible one to the other. Using a converter like this one.

The international ISBN system is in transition from ISBN-10s to ISBN-13s. Wikilink


message 213: by Donna (new)

2133220 Very cool! thanks for the info! I've saved the link to the converter so when i run look up my next audiobook i'll be prepared!

Thanks rivka!

message 215: by Donna (new)

2133220 So... i looked up my next audiobook and now i'm stuck again!

I'm going to listen to the MP3 of Naked Once More by Elizabeth Peters. The listing from netlibrary looks like this:
Duration: 12 Hours 42 Minutes
Product ID: 238076
EISBN: 9781433258503
ISBN: NONE
Narrator: Grace Conlin

so all i have is an eisbn number...
there are two other audio book editions already listed for this book - one's a CD and one's cassette. Both different isbn's.

so... what do i do with this?


message 216: by rivka, Volunteer Mod (new)

171430 According to B&N, that is the item's ISBN. So I guess add it manually under that ISBN.

(You can do the same with the other one, actually.)


message 217: by Donna (new)

2133220 Thanks! you'd think an isbn number would be the easiest thing :)

message 218: by Donna (new)

2133220 Hello! I added a new book and forgot to put the picture on it before i posted it. The book is Walden - isbn 9781402523496 - it's an mp3. a link for the picture that Netlibrary has for it is:
http://a1835.g.akamai.net/f/1835/276/3h/...

thanks!

donna

83445 Donna, I put on the cover for you, and combined the edition with the other editions of Walden.


message 220: by Donna (new)

2133220 Thank you Lisa!


message 221: by Donna (new)

2133220 I have a book that needs a cover image and a lot more. There's an entry for isbn 9781436107242 that is set up without any real information on it.

here's what i have for it: The Plague of Doves
10 CD's 11.25 hours
Narrated by Peter Francis James and Kathleen McInerney
Produced by Recorded Books 2008

I have a cover image - it's not like any of the others - i scanned it from the library copy i have here. I'm not sure how to get it to you though - what works the best for that?

Thanks!

donna

thanks for help,

message 223: by Pollyanna (new)

2518609 If you go into edit book, on the right hand side it says upload picture. All you have to do is save that picture to your computer and then upload it on there :)


message 224: by rivka, Volunteer Mod (new)

171430 Got it.


message 225: by Ziva (new)

1239203 Hi :)

9997511719 needs a cover. I found six covers here:

message 226: by rivka, Volunteer Mod (last edited Oct 13, 2009 08:50AM) (new)

171430 None of which correspond to that ISBN, given that it's a hardcover and not from Dell.

I did find publication years for them, and added them as alternate editions.


message 227: by Ziva (new)

1239203 Sorry for the mix up. But thank you for adding the other covers.

1005037 Mahdie, we can only use photographs of authors if permission has been granted (to Goodreads specifically or a general permission) or if the photographs are in the public domain. Does that apply for any of these photographs?

(This is unlike book cover art; permission to display book cover art is automatically granted to any book review.)


message 230: by Mahdie (new)

2700552 There are sadeq Hedayat's pictures .(Greatest Iranian writer)

You can see here:

http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:9hq...


And I could find only one picture from "Margot Bickel"(German poet). I found it from google.

These aren't book cover.









message 231: by Cait (new)

1005037 Thanks, Mahdie! I've uploaded the photograph for Sadeq Hedayat.


message 232: by Mahdie (new)

2700552 thank you too.
