Goodreads Librarians Group discussion

Helps referred me to you, the Librarians, on how to do this. I was a contributing author of 14 short stories published in anthologies, but am not an editor to link the books to my account. I am set to publish books in May and December, and want to switch my private account to the author program. Please instruct, or point me to where I should go. Thank you.

Is your name listed on those book records yet? If not, link to them so that we can add it.

Once your name is on a book record, you can go to that author profile and follow the directions to claim it.

Thank you. I am unsure how to link my name to the book records. It's linked on my Amazon Author Page, but is there somewhere else I must do that? I appreciate this so much, just wish I was not ignorant.

A librarian would have to add the name, but as yet we have no idea what the books are, so link to them here.

Right, thank you. :) What is the Book Record? You asked if my name is added to it. Do you mean through Amazon's description?

The book page. On Goodreads.
Go to the book, and copy the URL from the address bar of your browser, then paste it in a message here. Do that for each book. It would also be helpful if you numbered them.

I have found one of the anthologies and added your name to it. So here is your author profile:

https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

At the bottom of that page you will see a link asking if that author is you; click it and fill out the application form on the next page.

thank you so much Scott. #11, message 20 was more difficult to link, but Guideposts.org has it listed on their site.

Ok, all done.

Scott wrote: "Ok, all done."Thanks a million. If I had a million I'd share. :)

But none of this belonged in the Policies and Practices folder.

Sorry to select the wrong folder. I wasn't certain which to choose.

If you are not sure, Book Issues is usually the right one :)
