ÀÏ»¢»úÎÈÓ®·½·¨

We’ve made a change to some book permissions. As editions are now imported directly from Kindle and Audible to ensure readers automatically have the most up-to-date information, Librarians will no longer need to add or edit edition formats for Kindle and Audible. The complete Kindle and Audible Audio catalogs have already been backfilled to ÀÏ»¢»úÎÈÓ®·½·¨.

As part of this change, Librarians cannot:

1. Add a Kindle Edition or Audible Audio edition from 'book/new', or set those formats on 'book/edit'
2. Set the free text field for format to 'Kindle Edition' or 'Audible Audio'
3. Add an Alternate Cover Edition (ACE), or duplicate an ISBN, for a Kindle or Audible Audio edition. If an alternate cover edition is needed, this can be added as a new edition and the format set to ‘ebook’ or ‘audiobook’.

Librarians will still be able to edit metadata, and update status on these editions.

In addition, it is now acceptable to update an existing ÀÏ»¢»úÎÈÓ®·½·¨ cover image for Kindle and Audio Audio editions to match the cover in use in the Amazon.com store for that specific ISBN or ASIN. Updating these covers will update the previously shelved cover for members, and will match the cover seen in their Kindle and Audible Library, as these are also updated. Optionally, an added edition can be created as an 'ebook' or 'audiobook' format in the ÀÏ»¢»úÎÈÓ®·½·¨ catalog to represent a previously used cover image.
