Alcare91 | 47 comments Hi, I wanted to ask this to other Librarians.
The cover on this title is not even a valid cover. I have seen several plays in the Samuel French's Acting Edition with this picture as a cover, which is not the actual cover of the play as the play always gets published with the title in the cover, but I guess this is just an image to indicate the publisher, and to avoid leaving the title without a cover picture. But the plays never get published this way.

I own several of these titles including this one. Same title, same publisher, same ISBN. I wanted to know if I could change this image to the actual cover of the play. I know it is wrong to change the cover of a title to another one, but in this case this is not even a cover. The play was never published with this image.

So I want to ask to more experienced Librarians if I can correct these mistakes without violating the Manual. Thanks!!


Alcare91 | 47 comments Hi,
Does any Librarian know the answer to my question? I don't want to modify the title's cover until somebody responds. Thanks


Alcare91 | 47 comments Well, it's been three hours and nobody has responded, so I'll go ahead and change the cover.

Three hours is not very long, especially since you put your question somewhere other than the Policy & Practices folder.

It does appear to have been a reasonable change in this case, but next time, please wait longer.
