Cendaquenta | 94 comments Hi - I'm in the UK and there is currently a company named RBA Coleccionables publishing a very large collection of new special editions of classics, under the name Timeless Classics. They have at least 75 releases planned out, with one book becoming available every 2 weeks - currently 4 books have been released. The website is here: https://www.timeless-classics.co.uk/

How can I best bring this series / collection to the attention of librarians in order that they can all be added to the database eventually? I've been making threads for the individual books in the "Adding New Books & Editions" section, but the books are releasing faster than requests there can be processed, and I don't want to spam the section with nearly 80 threads and cause a backlog.

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7863 comments That's the only way to do it. It is best to have one thread for each book, as sometimes a librarian might have time to work on only one request. You won't be spamming the folder by making requests in this way.

Are these items sold individually, or only as part of a subscription? (The website is somewhat unclear on that point.)
