Hi Marc,If no-one else has sorted it by the time I'm on lunch I will do it then. It will have to be added as an alternate cover, leaving the original there, and then after that I believe that you as the author can set which book is the default edition.
Don't you just hate it when the title of a thread promises a lot more excitement than the thread actually delivers?

Did you think it was about The Librarian?
I fear my imagination was taking me into fifty shades territory. I had a sudden and compelling image of someone with an insatiable appetite for passion amongst the paperbacks.Shhhhh!

right, well uh *backs away slowly*
Well, I was struggling to think of a situation where I might need a librarian. I don't use libraries myself as I can get all the books I need online. I don't have much experience of Goodreads librarians. You don't normally classify librarians as an emergency service. I can't imagine myself phoning 999 to say that I need help finding a book.So I was trying to make a logical connection between the words "help", "need" and "librarian".
And ... um ...
I have added the new cover edition now. :)
many thanks Janet, off to take a squint!

and who is Davud Staniforth?
um the new cover image still isn't showing up for me to make it the default image - I assume it takes 24 hours?

If you go to the page https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
In book details it shows other editions (1) Although it says "none found" if you click on the words other editions it should take you to a page showing both.
I changed my covers in a couple of minutes using this method:http://mimibarbour.blogspot.co.uk/201...

He's David Staniforth's brother. Right prick, he is,
you need 2 editions, until the new cover shows up, I can't seem to make a second edition
Marc wrote: "you need 2 editions, until the new cover shows up, I can't seem to make a second edition"As far as I remember all I did was create a new edition, uploaded a new cover into it (deleting the asin from the first edition and pasting it into the 2nd edition) then set the 2nd ed as the default.

aha, that seems to have done the trick. Thanks Janet, you're a total star

Indeed he is, Davud and I have nothing in common, and he is the one usually seen fingering in amongst the dusty tomes. Personally I hold it all in until I get home ;~)

I've just uploaded a new cover for my kindle only novel
https://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/1...
but I don't have the authority to change the cover image on Goodreads to represent the book properly.
Would a kind roving librarian please wreak their magic for me?
Here's the Amazon page with the correct cover
