Danny Arenales (dannyarenales) | 6 comments Hello!

I badly want to become a GoodReads Librarian! I've taken and passed the quiz a number of times over the past year and still have not heard from GoodReads about officially becoming one.

I'm thinking I either must be doing something wrong, or has the librarian program ended or something?

Thanks!

Priscilla BookaddictNL (bookaddictnl) Same here! Passing this test every 24 hours, wrote a very detailed motivation.. but nope.. still not a librarian and Goodreads need more librarians . 😅

Priscilla BookaddictNL (bookaddictnl) By the way, sending a message to support / staff doesn’t work either.

I usually wait like 3 days before re-passing the test because if there are books waiting to be added for weeks (!) I think there is a queue of applications as well. Exactly because GR needs more librarians

I wrote to support yesterday, got no reply from them yet.

Priscilla BookaddictNL (bookaddictnl) I wrote support today (again) and they sent this reply (again):

It’s always the same reply, it’s standard and everyone is using it.

“Hi Priscilla,

Thanks for contacting us. While we carefully review all Librarian requests, not all are approved. It may be helpful to note that publishers and authors are not eligible for Librarian status, and that preference is given to those members who actively post in the Librarians Group. Your account must also be older than three months for you to be eligible. If you’d like to reapply, I recommend including a detailed explanation of what you hope to accomplish as a Librarian. You can review our Librarian Manual for more information about our policies before applying again:

Best,”

For me, they thought that even just replying would be too hard, so I haven't received anything

Priscilla BookaddictNL (bookaddictnl) You would think they would want the best for this platform 😅
