Thanks for the clarification.

Steve | 5 comments Re: Standard Handbook for Telescope Making - you have the cover image on the correct book - that ISBN matches my book. I don't know about the other one. I suspect the Abe Books image goes with a later edition - could be one not yet listed.

Emily  O (readingwhilefemale) | 2 comments Both of these show up in search, but for some reason when I go to the Combine form I can only find the first one. Thanks.

Amy (amy_bookworm) | 76 comments @Daniel: I'd most likely review it as part of the British Book Challenge both on my book blog & goodreads (:

@Steve: Adebooks isn't my only source, Amazon is too & info seems to match up. I don't want to do it though unless someone else can back up that this is a responsible change :) Ta!

Neither of which is a source we can use for book info.

Amy (amy_bookworm) | 76 comments I know Amazon isn't- but are all booksellers considered not legit? That's why I cross-referenced it.
AdeBooks & Amazon

Couldn't use this- not helpful but allowed I assume?: http://www.librarything.com/work/2342...

That's a pretty basic librarian question for a librarian responding to so many requests. It might be time to review the manual. Start with:

Amy (amy_bookworm) | 76 comments I've seen these- and in fairness, I do use publisher, author or ask the author to do it. But this is the first case none of which seem applicable. I obviously skim-read as some of the second seems half new... It was partly rhetorical, instead of saying: why can't we use them if we cross-reference? because I really didn't think anyone would want to answer that.
Edit: Sorry if I'm responding to so many requests :/

Responding to requests is great, as long as you are doing so within GR policy.


message 66: by Amy (last edited Dec 20, 2012 08:53AM) (new)

Amy (amy_bookworm) | 76 comments I hadn't done it yet, because it was different to other requests I've responded to. More research, I'll just leave it.
Thanks anyway (:

Cherry Tigris (toiletpaperpeople) | 8 comments The out of print version of my book Toilet Paper People needs to be replaced with the new cover (edition) of Toilet Paper People. The ISBN #'s are the same. Thank you! This is very confusing to my readers! ISBN-10: 1453855343
ISBN-13: 978-1453855348

Ingrid (irebollar) | 16 comments These two are the same book. The second one has the author's name spelled incorrectly.

Combined, but I think the second one should be deleted?

Agreed. Gone.


message 73: by Marisa (new)

Marisa Adams (marisa_adams) | 4 comments Would it be possible to combine these two editions. The first edition (link) is on two Listopia lists and I would hate to lose that. I also have a giveaway going at the moment so I do not know if a combination would cause a problem there either.

They are combined correctly. There are 2 different editions, Kindle and Paperback.

Thanks for checking, Amanda! So only one edition is able to be on Listopia?

Helen | 69 comments Hi, The Last Train Home by Tony Wilson needs combining, paperback with blue cover says 1 edition and the other is kindle with another edition attached. The kindle should have the same cover, thanks.


message 86: by Amy (new)

Amy (amy_bookworm) | 76 comments Is B009HSBFYQ the ASIN for the Kindle edition? I'll combine & add cover when this is confirmed.
Thanks (:

Helen | 69 comments Yes it is, thanks.

Lilac  (lilac_wales) | 3 comments Could a super-librarian merge these two editions into one?

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...

Please delete this less popular one as they are the same edition. I'd do it myself but it has more than 5 ratings so I need a super-librarian. Thanks :)

They have different covers, so they are not the same edition. They both need to stay
