Gary Kilmer | 1 comments When users search for my book “The Comforting Theory of Time”, or my name Gary Kilmer, the ebook edition comes up first. I’d very much like that changed to the paperback original (small size) set as the primary edition. Is that possible? - Gary Kilmer

Valentine | 1683 comments Hello Gary, it is indeed. I’m afraid librarians cannot set primary editions, but luckily you can as the author. You can set the primary edition by doing the following…

* Go to the book page of the edition that you would like to set as the primary edition
* Click ‘Edit book details’ at the top of the page under the star rating (it has a grey oval shaped outline, and a picture of a pencil to the left hand side)
* On the right hand side of the edit page under the cover photo, you should see a list of six options in blue font - the second one down is ‘set this book as the primary edition for this work’.

Bear in mind it can sometimes take a bit of time to display properly on your author page.
