Drace (dracenines) | 7569 comments There is a recurring issue that happens to CD audiobooks on Goodreads where the bot will create a duplicate edition. It does this by importing the ASIN listed on an already-existing CD audiobook from duplicated Amazon pages and creating an edition for it. For more details on this issue and confirmation from a superlibrarian about how to handle these issues correctly, please see this thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

There are multiple duplicate editions of the CD audiobooks for Deliver Me by Elle Nash that need to be merged.

Deliver Me - Library Edition CD Audiobook (ISBN 9798874773090)

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... - Duplicate of the library edition CD audiobook. If you plug this edition's ASIN (B0D7SH7CK8) into Amazon, it takes you to a page that lists the library edition's ISBN: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7SH7CK8/

This duplicate needs to be merged with ISBN 9798874773090.

Deliver Me - MP3 CD Audiobook (ISBN 9798874773113)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... - Duplicate of the MP3 CD audiobook. If you plug this edition's ASIN (B0D7SJBNC4) into Amazon, it takes you to a page that lists the library edition's ISBN: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7SJBNC4/

This duplicate needs to be merged with ISBN 9798874773113.

Deliver Me - CD Audiobook (ISBN 9798874773106)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... - Duplicate of the CD audiobook. If you plug this edition's ASIN (B0D7SGH9NZ) into Amazon, it takes you to a page that lists the library edition's ISBN: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D7SGH9NZ/

This duplicate needs to be merged with ISBN 9798874773106.

M. (8556784627) | 1853 comments Hi! Only superlibrarians can merge books in a way that deletes the duplicate. Could you move this thread to the Requests for Superlibrarians folder so one can see it?
Unfortunately as a regular librarian I cannot do this.


message 11: by Drace (new)

Drace (dracenines) | 7569 comments I thought regular librarians could carry out merges if an edition has been shelved fewer than 5 times? If I'm mistaken, I'll move the thread, but I just wanted to confirm before I do so.
