Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and recombine.While I was initially able to generate an ISBN10 for this ISBN, the ISBN13 initially given actually leads to a used copy on Amazon with an ASIN and a different ISBN10, so have separated for merging?

Please accept my apologies in advance if I am posting to the wrong thread. I have a book listed (Title: Rapture) that has not yet been published. Because I expect the project to take much longer than expected I was hoping to have it deleted from my page. Is this possible?https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Thanks!

When it would be deleted, users that are expecting it might add it again.

Please start new threads if you need help with this, as said in message 1 of this thread:
NOTE: This thread is for requesting the deletion of true duplicates -- two entries for the same edition of a book. If you need help with anything else (e.g.: moving books off an author's page where they have appeared in error, author disambiguation, combining editions, etc.) please start a NEW THREAD in this folder.
Please delete the duplicate of
and re-combine it with the paperback and the other Kindle. Unfortunately it's the most popular edition (incorrect publication date and page #, no ASIN).In case you need the original data: https://www.amazon.com/Icarus-Predict...
Thank you :-)
#135 No duplicate. Covers are different ("a novel" at the bottom of the cover) and it was already marked as alternate cover edition (at the bottom of the description). I've also added a librarian note and recombined.

Why is it difficult to delete a title from my bookshelves? One of our (Saguaro Books, LLC) titles (The Cemetery Sleeper) is now out of print and unavailable. I could not find help for this through searching your answers.Thanks,

It originated and is still meant for people to shelve the books they read, which is why it doesn't matter if a book is currently available or not.
If you are talking about your personal reading shelves, you can delete any book you like.
please, someone can merge these two?https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
thx
I am the publisher of the Title and it has gone out of print. I wish to remove it from my company (the publisher's) book shelf.Mary
I would be more than happy to have the super-librarians take this request. How do I contact them?
#144-145 This is the thread for superlibrarians. They will tell you the same as Abcdarian did in msg #139: no-longer-available books are not removed from the database.See also msg #2 in the Author FAQ, compiled by a staff member: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
