No problem, John, I was able to remove it for you.
Hi Patrick, I have a book on my profile, Only Human, that I had done as a self publishing project and am trying to get removed (as I re-wrote a new book and it's hopefully going to be published as part of my new series). Could you remove the first book from my author page (Only Human)?
We do not delete published books in the same way a library would not remove a book from there shelves- GR is a book cataloging site.The messages in the link below explain GR policy

I understand that and I read the thread, but the book was a failed project and is hopefully going to come out as a part of the series I'm currently publishing. If it cannot be removed, is there any way that you can show it as unavailable?
I have reversed the removal of book data which is considered vandalism as per msg 2 in the thread I linked to.It is permitted to note in the description that a book is no longer available
I asked for help to remove a book ascribed to me of which I'd never heard. Goodreads was most helpful and it's gone from my list.
I need someone to delete this book from my list. I am not the author. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
Hi. goodreads newbie here. Looks like it's okay to ask for books to be removed from your author list that you did not author. I don't want to modify the other humans name with whitespace to do this. Shall I post the books to remove here or is there a support page I should visit? Couldn't find one that seemed appropriate. thanks!Terence
This group is the best place for that sort of request: https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/...But if you post here, a librarian will probably see it as well, although likely not as quickly.
Hi there. Could you please delete this https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9...from my author list. I am not the author.
Many thanks.
Will It be possible to have these books removed from my list please? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

I am so sorry for the inconvenience.
Kali, are they by an author with the same name as you, or have the first 2 had their publication cancelled, or . . . ?
All three of these unpublished books are by me. Unfortunately, I am no longer publishing these selected books.
The third one was published already, and we don't delete out-of-print books. (Please see http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/22... and http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/32... for more information.)Have either of the first two been published or released as ARCs?
Shame. The other two have not been published at all. Not ARCs.
The two that have never been published have been removed.
Can I get this book ascribed to me deleted or removed from my list of books?https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Thanks.
Martyn
Hi Martyn,No problem--I've moved the book to another author's page. It looks like this book was added by an automated publisher feed, These feeds are great for letting us know when new books come out, but they sometimes get confused by authors with the same name. Sorry about that!
Please remove this book from my author page: Modern Family Business, The: Relationships, Succession and Transition
Hi Lorna,Looks like that book has been removed by a librarian. Let us know if you see any other books to remove, though!
Hello. Could I get this book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Removed from my author profile? I was an author on a different "Spirits of St. Louis" but not this one.
Thank you for the help!
Hi!Would it be possible to remove this book from my author profile: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1.... Must be a different Marie Bilodeau. Had I written a book about gardening, it would be entitled "How to Horrify Your Neighbours and Make Their Children Cry: Perfecting The Thumb of Gardening Death."
Thanks!
Marie
Hi Marie,I've moved that book to another profile for the illustrator Marie Bilodeau, clearing up space for your exciting cross-genre Gardening Horror How-To.
:?)
Ha ha! Thanks, Alex. I'll make sure to thank you in my first international bestselling gardening horror book. ;)
Joel, I've moved the book from your list.
Would someone please delete the book from my author's list. This Miranda Davis (author of 3 regency romances) didn't co-author a non-fiction psychology book for teens.My author's page: www.goodreads.com/author/show/5421963...
The WRONG book is: www.goodreads.com/book/show/20994167-...
This has appeared among my books once or twice before. Can't it be fixed permanently?

Miranda, it's not the same book coming back; it's new editions getting imported. That one was just imported today.
Hi,Could this book be deleted from my author page?
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
My Author page:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
I did not author this book, but the author and I have the same name.
Many thanks,
Steve
39 - done, best place to ask for this type of help is the librarians group
https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/220
Hi Russell, it looks like someone already removed that book from your profile, so you should be all good. For future reference, please post requests like this in the Librarians group. Thanks!
Hi, was wondering if someone could help me in removing Genitourinary Imaging: A Core Review from my author page. I didn't write it. It must have been some other handsome devil with a sexy name...https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
Please, and Thank you!
I need a book removed from my profile. This is a different person with the same name.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Thank you for your time.
I was trying to add my new ebook entitled A Reckoning of Lions and Lambs to my list. I typed the title into the form. It came up with the correct book in the search list. I chose the title on the list, but then it immediately went to another page that added the book into the database again. I thought I had done something wrong, so I tried it again. It did the same thing. I now have this listed three times in the list of books I authored. First, can you please remove the three entries entitlee A Reckoning of Lions and Lambs. Second, how do I add my new book to my list? Thanks. Roger Jackson
John, all fixed.Roger, you are Roger-3space-Jackson , which keeps you and your books separate from the other Roger Jacksons. But it means that when new books of yours import, they have to be moved by a librarian to your profile.
Got those.
It looks good now. Thanks for fixing it so quickly!
I have a duplicate Over the Edge listed on my author page. It's the one without cover art. Could you possible remove?Thanks
