Hi I am new author ( and new to Goodreads :) ) and I have 3 formats for my book available. Each format ( ie soft cover, hard cover and ebook) has its own ISBN number. Do I add the book three times one for each ISBN number. If I only add it once is there place to note the other ISBN numbers? If this has already be answered some where else - I apologize for asking this again.

Each edition needs to be added so that people can add whichever one it is they've read to their shelves. Some people are very particular about having the correct edition on their shelves (and others just add whichever they come to first).
You would add each book separately with their ISBN's. So you'll have three entries. Then let us know when you've finished adding them and someone here will combine them into one master book record with three editions.Does that make sense? Not sure if I explained it very clearly...
