Michelle Stevens | 8 comments I need to delete my book. I have changed to a pen name and have broken this book into pieces. The novel no longer exists.

Thanks!

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments We don't delete books that have been published. It still exists, it's just not having copies printed/distributed anymore. Those who obtained copies will want to shelve the copy that matches theirs; think of us as a library, rather than a bookseller/advertiser.

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments Unfortunately, even if you delete your account, there are copies of that book out there, if it has ever been published with that name.

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments You need to contact GR support and request there it is against policy for GR librarians to delete books.
