Goodreads Librarians Group discussion

A Single Man

I bought "A Single Man" from Amazon, but the cover is different from any on Goodreads (the CD edition is the closest to the one I have). It has the same ISBN and page numbering from the University of Minnesota Press edition (0816638624), but a different cover. Is there an easy way for me (who is not a librarian) to add the new cover somehow without making a separate edition and combining it with the original?

Here is a picture of the cover from the Univerity of Minnesota Press that I would love to have added: http://www.asingleman-book.com/index....

Thanks for any help!
Jim.

No. Alternate covers require new editions. However, you don't need to be a librarian to add a new edition.

And do I have to be a librarian to combine editions after I make a new one?

You would either have to be a librarian or ask a librarian to do it for you. The latter is common.

Cool—I just made an alternate edition.

Could you help combine editions? This version that I just made (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...) with this existing version A Single Man ?


Thanks in advance!

Got them, Jim.

Thank you both for your help!
