How long has it been since you requested it? Also, usually your profile page will reflect your librarian status under your profile image.
At this point, it doesn't seem that you've been granted librarian status yet. You can always contact support@goodreads.com as well.
Ok it has only been recently that I applied. I just didn't know when I'd be accepted

Yeah of course. I guess I'll have to wait. R u a librarian?

@Sandra can you edit the Tim Hawkins author profile. He's a Christian comedian and I really would like his profile filled.

If he's a GR author, he can complete this own profile. I'm not comfortable making changes to author profiles. Perhaps one of the other librarians can help you with that. There are open threads for this type of request, I believe.

Bio: Since giving up his job as a grocery truck driver in 2002, Tim Hawkins has been forging the magical blend between two comedic ideals: A genuinely funny comedy show that caters to the entire family. Is it realistic? Hawkins believes so. With over 100 million views on YouTube, 120+ sold out shows every year, and a motley crew of 200K+ Facebook fans, Tim has started a gut-busting grassroots revolution of multi-generational proportions. But what's so special about this St. Louis native who is most notorious for his wretched cow impersonations?
Some would say it is his equally gifted and twisted approach to the medium. A self-taught guitarist, Hawkins will go note-for-note on everything from Skynyrd to Bon Jovi to Prince, while dishing out flawless vocal imitations of Bono, Jason Aldean, and John Mayer... all within mere minutes. His stand-up material is vigorous, well-timed, and honed to perfection. However, the connection he makes with his fans goes deeper than that: "If you can't laugh at yourself, laugh at other people."* It is this ability to show the brokenness of our human nature and simultaneously marvel in its hilarity which makes Tim such a unique artist.
With four munchkins of his own and a beautiful wife who is winning her battle with breast cancer, Hawkins develops new material daily by simply absorbing the world around him. The perils of marriage, parenting, and homeschooling may not exemplify the rock-star life, but they sure make for great comedy. And as Tim would tell you himself, "It's not like I have choice. Comedy is my only life skill."

Added. Thank you for the information.
How do I add an Untitled book to a series that already exists?
You could just put "untitled" in the title box, I guess.
Why this book doesn't have any title? You can use the ISBN/ASIN for the search
The author says this series is going to be a trilogy but there is only two books listed in Goodreads so I'm trying to add the third book.

Mod
If it doesn't yet have a title, ISBN, or any other information, there doesn't seem much point in adding it.
If you add an edition that has no information, when the book is out and is being added the person will have no way of looking up for the edition you already created so it is gonna float around GR with no way for us to check wgat is the book. If it should remain or be deleted. If it has title or ISBN and author you can create it, add it to the series and leave a librarians note.
