Need to get several of my covers updated!! > Likes and Comments

Hi - I am in the process of refreshing all of my book covers, and it's a bit surprising that I can't change them here on my writer's dashboard. How do we do this?

Thank you!

Book covers can only be updated by Librarians. Are these new editions of your books? Or are you trying to replace placeholder images?

Just cover images.

Please read this article about creating "Alternate Cover Editions (ACE)".

In short, Goodreads doesn't allow you to delete old covers from the site because readers usually want to shelve the exact version of the book they own or read. If you have re-released a book with an updated cover, you can create an ACE which creates a new edition of the book, moves the ISBN/ASIN to this edition, and then allows you upload a brand new cover.

Let me know if you have any more questions or need help with this.
