Axelle Playoust-Braure (axellepb) | 8 comments Hello,
Can you please add myself Axelle Playoust-Braure as a co-author to these three books I co-wrote?
- Feu, abécédaire des féminismes présents
- Plaidoyer pour une viande sans animal
- La pensée végane: 50 regards sur la condition animale
Thank you very much :)

Xavi | 2464 comments I have checked the first one on amazon, and only Elsa Dorlin appears. On the cover it reads as coordinator, but there are no names of other authors.

Could you provide reliable links to check the author information in each case?

Axelle Playoust-Braure (axellepb) | 8 comments Yes sure!

- First book, on the website of the publisher, you can find my name among the authors list: https://editionslibertalia.com/catalo...
- Same here for the second book, within the summary: https://www.puf.com/content/Plaidoyer...
- And for the third, you can find my name at page 5 of the book preview (when you browse through the beginning of the book) at this link: https://livre.fnac.com/a14672130/Rena...

Thank you so much

Xavi | 2464 comments I have reviewed the first one and I see that 69 authors appear. I really don't know what to do in these cases.
The librarian's manual says that Goodreads currently allows up to 50 authors per book and allows including the name of the editor or coordinator in these cases, but I don't know if it would be fair to include the name of only some authors.

Perhaps some more experienced librarian could clarify this issue.

Xavi | 2464 comments In the second book there are only 9 authors, so I am going to add them in GR.

In the third case, I think there are also 50 authors or more, and I expect the best judgment of other librarians.

Axelle Playoust-Braure (axellepb) | 8 comments Ok, thank you Xavi.

For the third book, there are 50 chapters and some authors wrote several of them, so there are less than 50 authors :)

If there are more than can be added, we would add as many as possible, giving preference to those who request it. If there are no author requests, we would go by the order listed.
