Fábio Martins (fabioduartemartins) | 3 comments Hello to all!

I found that one of the books that I've authored is listed 3 times on the site and two of them have been misattributed to someone else.

Here are the 3 entries:
- https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
- https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
- https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

I've already claimed the one where I could do so.

How can I proceed forward with it? Thank you!

Scott | 9040 comments I have moved the books to a new profile. Unfortunately we cannot combine or merge records right now as they are doing maintenance.

Thanks, Scott! How should one proceed for the merging to happen?

Scott | 9040 comments Looks like this was done by another librarian.

Aha! Great! Thank you and the mysterious librarian!

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7863 comments Fábio, you can claim your author profile by clicking on this link to access the application. Complete the information — including selecting your book[s] from the list provided — and then submit the application.

After the staff has completed their review, they will upgrade your current reader profile to an author account and send you an email confirmation. This might take a few business days, depending on staff workload, so please be patient.

See The Goodreads Author Program for more information.
