Website with book covers

[HeavyReader]

I just found another good resource. It's a website with cover images from all sorts of books. There are cover images of comic books too.

http://www.coverbrowser.com/

I might be up all night looking at this.

Thanks. Wonder if we can use their covers for Goodreads' coverless books?!

It would be great if we could. I hate coverless books. So much of my memory (especially with books of my childhood and adolescence) is connected to covers.

At the bottom of the page it says 'fair use' - and they're not a bookseller, so I'd say yes, use them.

Great news! Thanks, Cheryl.

What is the process of getting those cover images from the CoverBrowser site to GoodReads?

Download them to your desktop and upload them to the book on the edit book page.

Make sure the covers are correct for the edition of the book!!!

Thanks Lisa. I'll give it a try at some point.

http://www.facsimiledustjackets.com/c... is another site - the person who discovered it contacted the owner and the owner said 'sure, use them' - for more info, and more sources, visit "sourcing book covers" in the Feedback Group.

Cheryl, Is this site already in that list at the Feedback group? If not, we should have it added.

Yes it is.
