Kate | 3 comments It took me forever to find the correct version of the Brother's Karamazov and just now I was looking at my booklist, i see that someone has changed the cover from what was correct, to a different version that is completely incorrect. I'm waiting on my goodreads librarian status in hopes of helping solve matters such as this but is there anyone out there who can lock down correct information once it is entered? Kind of like the people who actually work for wikipedia and manage what is written in their articles by us, the general public/users?

Debbie Moorhouse Books can have the same ISBN but different covers--especially if they've been in print for a long time. So a cover can be correct for one member, but incorrect for another. I believe Otis is considering making provision for alternate covers, and so the best solution might be to vote for that :).

Kate | 3 comments thanks, that makes a little more sense of things. How and where would one cast a vote??
