I apologize if this has been covered and I missed it, but when a book is translated, or reprinted, what year do we use for publication? The year it appeared in the language we read it in, or the original year of publication? When a book has been reprinted, do we use the year it originally appeared, or the year our particular edition was published? Thanks for any guidance you can give!

Cassandra | 5832 comments That's up to you, Cheri! Personally, I'm going by the Goodreads first published date. Most books have a publish date for the edition, and then sometimes will have "(first published 2007)" written in gray next to it. That's what I go with, but you're free to come up with your own system.
