Lune Spark | 36 comments Hi - I can't add a new series from the book edit page. It takes me to goodreads home page when i click on the link. Can a librarian please help in creating the following series

Short Stories by Young Writers

And add the book A Window to Young Minds to this series (both the paperback and kindle versions)

Lune Spark | 36 comments Also, when I created the kindle version, the authors did not get copied. Since this is an anthology, the book has many authors. Can a librarian also help copying the authors to kindle version? thanks

lethe | 16368 comments Short Stories by Young Writers does not sound like a series according to GR policy. A series needs to have characters and/or a universe in common.


message 4: by Lune (new)

Lune Spark | 36 comments well, you can search on amazon or myidentifier to see the series.

Goodreads has different criteria for what constitutes a series. Please see https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2...

Lune Spark | 36 comments well, the series contains the yearly anthologies of the stories that win in the Lune Spark story contest - there is your "common universe." If you need examples, I can produce many examples from goodreads itself. Just let me know.

That is not what is meant by a common universe.

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments You can add them as listopia if you want to have them grouped.

And, sadly, just because it's a series already it doesn't mean it's a valid one - some librarians struggle with creating series so there may be other not valid ones. (lately I came across a series created 12 times luckily most of them empty and not with single books in it so it was a quick fix)

Lune Spark | 36 comments Hi - Can someone please help adding the following eBook addition:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
 
To the other additions that are already available below:
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

that way all editions of the book will be at one place.
