What to do if there's more than 30 authors?

I've had poems published in five different books by a small publisher (United Press Ltd.) and wanted to add them to GoodReads, but since they are made up of 100+ different writers, how do I add them?

Is there a general rule for what to do? Would be great to have them added since I'm in them! :)

Natalie, you can always list the books with the authors in the description field, but you're correct that the only way to create an author profile is to be in the one of the author slots. This happens rarely enough that there isn't a general rule for it that I'm aware of; I'd say that unless the books are already in the system with thirty Goodreads Authors taking all of the author slots that it would be acceptable to list the books with your name in one of the slots, especially if you plan on applying to be a Goodreads Author yourself.
