How to reach us
We welcome editorial correspondence from readers, researchers, and rights holders. Whether you have spotted an error, encountered a technical problem, or wish to raise a question about the content or operation of the catalogue, the best way to reach us is by email.
What to report
The following are the most common and useful reasons to get in touch:
- Metadata corrections — An incorrect title, author name, contributor credit, or publication detail.
- Category placement — A book that appears to be misfiled or would benefit from an additional category tag. For example, a survival narrative might belong in both 'Adventure Picaresque Fiction' and 'Science Fiction Utopias'.
- File or reading issues — A file that will not open, displays garbled text, is missing pages, or fails to render on a particular device or browser.
- Accessibility problems — Poor contrast, missing alt text on cover images, or other barriers that make the catalogue difficult to use with assistive technology.
- Privacy questions — Concerns about data handling, cookies, or any personal information you may have shared while using the site.
- Copyright or rights concerns — A belief that a work may not be in the public domain in your jurisdiction, or that your rights have been infringed.
- General editorial observations — Suggestions for new categories, additional reading notes, or other improvements to the catalogue. We particularly value input on our curated sections such as 'Fantasy Juvenile Worlds' or 'Historical Psychological Social Fiction'.
What to include in your message
To help us address your report quickly and accurately, please include as many of the following details as are relevant:
- The exact page URL where the issue appears.
- The full title of the ebook and, if known, the author or editor. For example, 'The land beyond the mist — Background and Themes' or 'A knife in time — Reading Notes'.
- The file format you are using (e.g., EPUB, PDF, MOBI, HTML).
- The device, operating system, and browser or reading application.
- A clear description of the observed problem, including any error messages.
- If your message concerns copyright or rights, any supporting information you can provide about the work’s legal status in your country.
Our editorial address
Please send all correspondence to [email protected]. This mailbox is reviewed by our poetry editor, Ralph Collins, who also handles general editorial matters. We read every message and take each report seriously. Whether your query is about a specific title like 'Crash dive — A Closer Reading' or a broader editorial suggestion, we welcome your input.
A note on response times
We are a small independent operation and cannot guarantee a reply within a fixed period. We do, however, make every effort to acknowledge and act on reports as promptly as resources allow. Thank you for your patience and for helping us maintain a reliable catalogue.
Additional guidance for specific inquiries
If you are reporting a metadata error, please indicate whether the mistake appears in the title, author, contributor, or publication details. For category placement issues, mention the current category and where you believe the work should be moved. For file or reading issues, let us know if the problem occurs with a specific format or across multiple formats. Accessibility feedback is especially helpful when you describe the assistive technology you are using. For privacy questions, we can provide details about our data practices upon request. Copyright reports should include the jurisdiction and any relevant legal context. General observations are always welcome; we appreciate suggestions for new reading notes or thematic categories that could enrich the catalogue.
