Title says it all. I noticed a pretty significant issue regarding book titles, and I'm not sure if it's something for a superlibrarian to deal with (because the book is very popular and has lots of logs/reviews/etc) or just a general project. The specific issue is that the book was published under different titles in the US and the UK, and while the UK title was the original, the book has the US title set as the original title on Goodreads.

Not a superlibrarian issue.Mergings of editions with more than 5 shelvings need to be done by a superlibrarian, but most other things can be done by any librarian.

Thanks! One more question: would each edition of the book manually need to have the original title changed, or is there a way to mass edit it and do it all at once?
No, the original title is a 'work' edit, which means that it is changed on all editions at once.
