Newer edition with same ISBN

[Laurens]

Dear Librarians,

I have a physical copy of Le Guin's The Dispossessed with the same cover and page count (387) as this one, but with the ISBN (9780061054884) of this one. It is a mass-market size edition by Harper Voyager, copyright 1974, but the latest date mentioned in the colophon is "First Harper Voyager mass market printing: August 2011".

I cannot find this edition on Goodreads.

Bump. I would add it myself but since it reuses an older ISBN, I cannot make a complete record. WorldCat agrees that this 2011 edition reuses the old ISBN.

We cannot copy a cover from one edition to another one. We would need a source (one that we can use, see https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...) that shows the matching ISBN.

Thanks for the feedback. This was my first post here.

An archived page of Harper Voyager shows that the mass market edition that was listed by them in 2019 has both the ISBN and cover I mentioned. (The indicated date of Jan 1st 1970 is a bug: the book was first released in 1974, and it seems like the system reverts to the start of Unix time (Jan 1st 1970) when a "null" release date is given.)

This refers to the edition I have, i.e. the August 2011 Harper Voyager mass market edition with 387 pages and ISBN 9780061054884.

Would that work?

Yes, that looks fine.

I've got my hands pretty full this week, but if one of our volunteer Librarians doesn't get this by the end of the week, I'll see what I can do.
