Tatiana Alejandra de Castro Pérez (shoggothroof) | 182 comments Good evening.

I was wondering if being an author and being a librarian are incompatible in Goodreads. If so, I prefer to be a librarian so I can be more useful to the Goodreads' community.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Tadiana

Before making a decision like this, I would suggest doing some research into how Goodreads works. For example, other than the moderator, we are all volunteers here & have no influence on GR decisions. & we aren't meant to discuss things like this.

I would suggest reading the manual (link at the top of this group) so you know a bit more about how things work. :)

Emily | 17496 comments Authors are not granted librarian permissions except for the ones they are allowed on their own books if they are the primary author.


Tatiana Alejandra de Castro Pérez (shoggothroof) | 182 comments I'm totally sure about the change: I am more useful to the community as a librarian than being an author.

How can I ask for this change?

Thanks in advance.

Emily | 17496 comments You can ask for your Goodreads Author status to be removed, but you will still have to apply to be a librarian separately, which is not guaranteed--it's a completely different program than the author program.
