Drucilla | 96 comments Hello!

I need a wonderful librarian to help me. I came across Shannon Hale’s author page and her books are kind of a mess. I did my best to organize it up below but I’m not 100% sure I understand the Goodreads rules for combining certain editions so I turn to the librarians.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
need to be combined, I think. The first one is the audiobook version.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
might need to be combined or one deleted? Not sure.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
need to be combined. It appears to just be a different edition.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
need to be combined as the latter is just the French edition.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
need to be combined. The latter two are Italian and Spanish editions.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
need to be combined. The latter is a French edition.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
I think this one can just be deleted. There is no metadata for it and I can't find reference to it online anywhere.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
can be combined, I think.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
can be combined. The latter is the Spanish edition.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
This just needs to be deleted. The listing doesn’t have an actual title, the cover is actually two covers put together, and the ASIN listed isn’t real.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
need to be combined. The latter is a different edition.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
need to be combined. The latter books are a different edition.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
need to be combined. The latter is the Spanish edition.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
need to be combined. The latter is the French edition.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
is tied to Shannon Hale (Author of Princess Academy), but should actually be tied to a different Shannon Hale, the book on that Shannon Hale's profile is below
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
(the first link could actually probably be deleted because it doesn’t contain an ISBN or ASIN)

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
can be combined. The latter is a foreign edition.

Below are pages that were actually just samplers. I didn’t know if samplers are considered different “editions” of the actual product. I’ve included them below in case they can be combined.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
and
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Thank you!

Drucilla | 96 comments I knew that I didn't need a superlibrarian for combining things, but there were a few deletions in there which do require a SL.

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7859 comments It's best to open one topic per request. That will get a faster response, besides enabling you to post in the correct folder.

If you choose to list multiple requests in the same post, please number them. Also understand that requests with multiple requests are more likely to be skipped by those librarians who might not be able to devote an extended amount of time to requests.

Lieke | 4925 comments I think all combine's are done, samplers are not combined with the original.
Merged the book of the other Shannon.
