How to Reach Us
We welcome editorial correspondence from readers, researchers, and rights holders. Your observations help improve the catalogue for everyone. Below are the most useful reasons to write, along with guidance on what to include so we can act on your message efficiently.
When to Contact the Editor
- Metadata corrections – If you notice an incorrect title, author attribution, date, or category placement. For example, a work listed under “Biographies” that belongs in “Memoirs” should be flagged. Similarly, if a reading companion like “The life of St. Patrick and his place in history — Reading Companion” is misattributed or misdated, we want to know.
- Unreadable files or reader failures – If an ebook fails to open, displays garbled text, or has missing chapters. Please specify the file format (EPUB, PDF, MOBI, etc.) and the device or browser you were using. For instance, if “20 hrs., 40 min. — Key Ideas to Explore” does not render properly on your e-reader, let us know.
- Accessibility problems – If you encounter issues with screen-reader compatibility, missing alt text, poor contrast, or other barriers that prevent full use of the text. We strive to make our catalogue usable by everyone, and your feedback on specific titles like “The Rising Son; or, the Antecedents and Advancement of the Colored Race — Edition Insights” is especially valuable.
- Privacy questions – If you have concerns about how your data is handled on this site, or wish to request removal of any personal information that may have been inadvertently included in a catalogue entry. We take your privacy seriously and will respond to such requests promptly.
- Copyright or rights concerns – If you believe a work in the catalogue is not in the public domain in your jurisdiction, or if you hold rights to a text and wish to discuss its status. Please include any supporting documentation, such as publication dates or edition details. For example, “A libell of Spanish lies — A Reader’s Guide” may have a complex publication history that warrants review.
- General editorial observations – Suggestions for new categories, thematic groupings, reading companions, or corrections to the introductory notes that accompany each title. We read every message carefully. If you have insights on “The Mulfuzāt Timūry = — Background and Themes” or “Anne Hyde, Duchess of York — Story, Setting & Ideas,” we welcome your perspective.
