Linda (mspianobug) | 0 comments I am a new librarian. I use ebooks and have found many discrepencies and it was going to be something I thought I could look at.

I see that only authors and goodreads staff can add or update ebooks, correct?

If you are referring to uploading actual ebooks to Goodreads, that is correct.

However, any librarian can correct the data (title, author, publisher, pub date, etc.) for the many ebook records we have.

Lily (joy1) | 189 comments How can I find this ebook to add to my book shelves? (I do already have a paperback edition -- which also is not the "correct" one yet.) I doubt I need to make a new entry, but I have gone through a number of the 49 Frankenstein pages w/o success.

Thx!

PS -- I think I saw this edition when I looked at the "add book" feature for messages, but I haven't found it to add to book shelves. (Can't find it there either right now.)

Thanks, rivka. I should have known. But, for some reason I didn't see the ASIN the first time I looked at the Amazon entry. Again, thx, and sorry for bothering you. Have it added to my shelves now.
