Hello, what makes this a series?

It's the first book in a planned series. Does a second book need to be published for Goodreads to list it as a series? Amazon and Barnes & Noble allow series with one entry, but I couldn't find any Goodreads rules on the subject.

Goodreads does allow series with only one book published, but we need to make sure it meets Goodreads' policies for series, or we risk losing our librarian rights for not following policy. Please read the pinned post on what those guidelines are, which should be provided with all requests. Since you didn't include them, I asked you to clarify.

The book is in a series with a shared setting and overarching story following the same characters.
