Sanne (sanneennas) | 24 comments I wanted to add the book "Le vair palefroi, avec deux versions de La male honte par Huon de Cambrai et par Guillaume, fabliaux du 13e siècle" to GR, but came across this entry of an "ebook". The only ebook version I can find is the scan of the paper book on archive.org: http://archive.org/details/levairpale...
As far as I know, Librairie Honoré Champion never published an ebook version (but with the expired copyright it can be uploaded on websites like archive.org).

Should the ebook be listed as a separate edition, or do I need to change this entry to fit the description of the paper book, and add a link to the digitalized version in the description?

To be certain I'm doing this correctly for other books in the same series published by Librairie Honoré Champion, can someone confirm I'm doing this the right way? I've added the link to the scan on archive.org in the description, like here: Les Chansons de Colin Muset

Thanks for the help!

Dirk (dirk_p_broer) | 50 comments Almost perfect, but the 'new' ebook can't be published in 1912, there were no ebooks yet then. You have to enter the right year for the ebook edition. You already give 1912 for the year of original publication.

Sanne (sanneennas) | 24 comments right, so if I understand you correctly, I have to add a different edition for the scanned versions of the paperback books on archive.org?

Sanne (sanneennas) | 24 comments just found another topic talking about project Gutenberg with similar scanned ebooks, which answers my second question. here: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/8...

Thanks for your help Dirk!
