Ramon Somoza (rsg56) | 27 comments I found several messages "The ISBN XXX for this book was also used by another book.The ISBN13 XXX for this book was also used by another book"
This drove me nuts because I had NOT added those books. Then I realized that this problem occurred only in books which existed in several languages.

For example, my English book "To the Rescue of home" has an ISBN 9788419125859. However, in Goodreads this ISBN leads to the French book "Échos de la Terre" (ISBN 9788419125842). As the books were published closely one after the other, it could be that the information from Amazon was transferred incorrectly.

How do I fix these errors? I've noticed that I cannot change the ISBN. Do I contact a Superlibrarian with the list of wrong ISBNs, indicating the correct ones? At least that's what I understood from the Librarian Manual at https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...
