Suz | 4432 comments Hi, could I please have this book added?

https://www.amazon.com.au/Opposite-Su...

No image at Amazon as yet, and it's also not listed with Text as far as I can see.

Sorry, I'm not giving you the entire suite of info.

Thanks

Rachel (mimbza) | 697 comments I’ve tried requesting this book is added to the main GR librarian group but no success. Just wondering if anyone here can help me add it as it is an Aussie book?

* Title: About A Girl About A Pearl
* Author(s) name(s): Kristin Wiendenbach, Alison Brown
* ISBN (or ASIN): 9781921037412
* Publisher: Cygnet Bay Pearls
* Publication date: 2022
* Format: Paperback
* Page count: 288
* Description: At a time when others only dreamed of growing pearls in Broome’s giant oysters, the pioneering Brown family mastered the secrets to coax the perfect pearls to life. With an Aussie can-do attitude they created Cygnet Bay pearl farm in the 1960s, the oldest Australian-owned and operated pearl farm and producer of the world’s largest fine-quality pearl—the size of a 10-cent coin.

From seven years living in a paperbark hut alongside the local Bardi Jawi people, to herding goats and snakes,and managing a male work crew of pearl technicians, divers and deckhands, Australia’s ‘First Lady of Pearls’ shares her life of adventure raising two children and building an entire community in the isolated tropical paradise of Western Australia’s north.

Clare Snow (claresnow) | 521 comments Hi, I have this ISBN 0140342672 of The True Story Of Lilli Stubeck by James Aldridge.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

There's a few things wrong with the record for my edition and the original pub date.
Date pub 1985
Page no should be 182
Title is missing "The"
My ed is published by Puffin/Penguin
Only pic of cover is from ebay. I've uploaded photo of my copy's cover https://www.goodreads.com/photo/user/...

This record for the first edition is correct: pub 1984 by Hyland

Done except for cover. We can't use the amazon cover as that isbn isn't sold on amazon. The isbns must match. The Trove covers don't match the isbn either :(

Clare Snow (claresnow) | 521 comments Can you please add Original Pub Date to the book Jodie's Journey. 1988

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

And the blurb of this edition is incorrect. It currently has desciption of the condition of a 2nd hand copy.

It should read:
It was the most wonderful moment in Jodie's life. For her, the whole world seemed to sing with joy. The sky seemed brighter and the sunshine more golden. When Jodie Carpenter won the Greenvale Junior Show Jumping Championship there were tears of happiness in her eyes. She was not to know that she was about to be cruelly struck down by a crippling disease, and the hurdles ahead of her would be more challenging than those she had just overcome.

It's already there Alex, searching by that ISBN. A Quiet Flame by Philip Kerr

Catsalive | 1468 comments What a nightmare this database is! Thanks, librarians.

Please fix this one:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...

isbn 9780143779001 is not a kindle edition, it is the Penguin paperback in my hand, has 314 pp. not 348

Also, it's got a 'first published' date of May 9, 2023 when this edition was pub. on May 2, 2023 - so sayeth Penguin, anyway.

Brenda | 80002 comments Mod
Fixed Kylie. For some strange reason, Amazon puts both the ISBN (paperback) and ASIN (kindle) on the same profile. I have had to change several of my own paperbacks I've had in hand, that say kindle. I changed the pp count and date also, but it'll take awhile for the caching to catch up!!


message 4194: by Clare (new)

Clare Snow (claresnow) | 521 comments Hi Sandra, A while back I asked you to add the book One Song and I got some details wrong. Editions have been added with the correct info. Can you merge this edition with the others. The original pub date needs to be changed to 25 July 2023

These should be reported to support on the contact form (I use the header Mixed Isbns) then tell them what to do to fix it. ie move the isbns to a new paperback edition etc. Or move the kindle asin to a new edition. Include links :)

Rowan MacDonald | 404 comments Hi librarians,

Can someone please add the paperback version of Hitler's Tractor by Jan William Smith? Including different page number (224) to Kindle versions.

https://www.simonandschuster.com.au/b...

Many thanks in advance!


message 4200: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 1178 comments The paperback edition was already listed, just with an erroneous format of kindle, but the isbns were the same.

Trove gives the page number as 218 for the paperback, so I've used that as the publisher is often wrong.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...

Also contacting support to remove the asin from the paperback as its the kindle asin.
