Rachael Wade (goodreadscomauthorrachaelwade) | 23 comments Hi everyone,

You all probably receive the question a thousand times, so I apologize in advance.

Today a duplicate of my novel popped up under my name. I only have one e-book out, no print version, no other editions, only 1, and strangely enough the source it came from was Barnes and Noble with some really weird ISBN number and no image. Here are the links:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

I was wondering if someone could help me correct/remove this, just so I don't have two listings of the same book floating around here, and so reviews and things like that don't get split up.

Thanks for your help.

It appears that the other edition is for a print version, due out Sept. 30, 2011. If we delete it, it will reimport, again.

I did combine them, though.

Thanks for your help. Okay, I wasn't sure about that because the print edition isn't available yet. I only registered it, but had to use the ISBN for the e-book instead, so now I will have a new ISBN for the print edition when it comes out.

Thank you for combining them--I'm assuming it will be easy for me to add the new ISBN for the print edition, then? Or will I have to have a librarian change that for me as well?

The easiest way to add a new edition (assuming it has been listed on B&N and/or Amazon) is just to search for it. The new edition will then import. About half the time the system will recognize it is the same as the existing editions and combine them automatically; the rest of the time, just post here and a librarian can combine them for you. :)
