Beth Barnett (thenedbarnett) | 2 comments Hello!

I can't seen to change my author name to "Ned Barnett," which is what I'm now publishing as. I tried updating in my author profile, but got a message saying that only librarians can update names etc.

Thank you!Beth Barnett

If you want to claim a new author profile with the name of Ned Barnett, you will have to claim it either with a different email address, or ask GR support to transfer your claim to the name Ned Barnett. But the name Beth Barnett will not change.
