How to reach the editorial team
We welcome thoughtful correspondence from readers, researchers, and rights holders. Your observations help us maintain the quality and accuracy of this catalogue. Below are the most common reasons to write, along with guidance on what to include so that we can act efficiently.
Metadata corrections
If you notice an error in a title, author attribution, publication date, or category placement — for example, a book listed under History, Empires & Change that clearly belongs in Science Fiction Utopias — please send the exact page URL and the title as it appears. If you have a reliable source for the correct information, mention it briefly. Even small details, such as a misspelled author name or an incorrect subtitle, are worth reporting; they help us keep the catalogue reliable for everyone.
File or reading issues
When an ebook fails to open, displays garbled text, or is unreadable on a particular device or browser, describe the file format (EPUB, PDF, Kindle, etc.), the software or hardware you were using, and the precise nature of the problem. A screenshot or quoted error message can be helpful, though we do not require attachments. For instance, if a specific chapter of Essays in American history — A Reader’s Guide renders incorrectly on an older e-reader, that detail allows us to reproduce and resolve the issue more quickly.
Accessibility concerns
We strive to make our catalogue usable by everyone. If you encounter a barrier — such as missing alt text on images, poor contrast, or incompatibility with screen-reader software — please let us know which title and format you were accessing, and what assistive technology you rely on. Your feedback helps us improve not only that particular ebook but also our general publishing practices.
Privacy questions
If you have a question about how we handle personal data, or wish to exercise a data-protection right, direct your message to the editorial address below. We treat all privacy inquiries with care. You may also request that we delete any correspondence you have sent; we will honour such requests promptly.
Copyright and rights concerns
We believe all works in this catalogue are in the public domain in the United States. If you hold rights to a title that you believe should not be here, or if you have information about a work’s copyright status in another jurisdiction, please include the title, the relevant country, and any supporting documentation. We take such reports seriously and will investigate thoroughly, removing any title that proves to be in error.
General editorial observations
Whether you have a suggestion for a new category, a comment on our critical introductions (such as those accompanying Essays in American history — A Reader’s Guide or Partial Portraits — Story, Setting & Ideas), or simply wish to share how a particular text has enriched your reading, we are glad to hear from you. Reader perspectives often inspire new catalogue features or highlight connections we had not considered.
