Goodreads Librarians Group discussion

Hi,

I fear there are two links on Goodreads to my book on Amazon Kindle.
After adding the book, I changed the cover image and also uploaded edited content on Amazon. This can be the reason.

Now can you please combine the links if there are two?
The latest one is the cover image with a flying saucer & Earth and blue colours: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

I also have a print edition of the same book on Amazon's Createspace. Is it necessary to add a separate link to that too?

Thank you.

Reverted ASIN removal. Please note: removing valid data on existing editions is not allowed.

Goodreads policy is to keep all published covers on the site, as users want to shelve the cover of the copy they have.
Instead, we add an alternate-cover edition.
See http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...
and http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/85....

This is the original Kindle edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
This is the Kindle edition with the alternate cover: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
I've added the paperback edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

As the author, you have the ability to change which edition of the book is the default, which will come up in searches by title and show on your author profile.
How to set the default edition.

Please note: the additional photo section of a book page is not intended for covers. I've removed the cover that was added there.

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply.

As Goodreads policy is to keep all published covers on the site, I doubt the cover given in the original Kindle edition is not the right one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

That cover image was a temporary one, and has been replaced on Amazon. This is the latest Amazon link to my book: https://www.amazon.com/Coming-Noahs-2...

Can you please do the needful to change the old cover image of the Kindle edition as it's no more in use.

Thank you for your time.

The cover on that edition was imported from Amazon on Sept 10th 2016, where the publication date is listed as Sept 9th 2016, so that cover is considered a published cover.
