How to Reach Us

We welcome your correspondence. Whether you have noticed an error in a title or author listing, encountered a file that does not open correctly, or wish to raise a question about copyright or rights, the editorial team is here to review your message.

What to Report

The following are examples of the kind of feedback that helps us maintain the catalogue:

  • Metadata corrections — an incorrect title, author name, or category placement (for example, a book that belongs in “School, Friendship & Growing Up — Reader’s Shelf” but appears elsewhere).
  • File or reader failures — an ebook that fails to download, displays garbled text, or causes your reading application to crash.
  • Accessibility problems — a file that is not compatible with screen‑reading software or lacks a usable table of contents.
  • Privacy questions — any concern about how your data is handled while using the site.
  • Copyright or rights concerns — if you believe a work should not be listed as public domain in your jurisdiction, or if you hold rights to a title and wish to discuss its inclusion.
  • General editorial observations — suggestions for new categories, reading companions, or other improvements.

How to Submit a Report

To help us respond accurately, please include as many of the following details as possible:

  • The exact URL (web address) of the page where you noticed the issue.
  • The full title of the ebook and, if known, the author’s name.
  • The file format you are using (EPUB, PDF, Kindle, etc.).
  • The device or browser you were using (for example, “iPad with Safari” or “Windows 10 desktop with Adobe Digital Editions”).
  • A clear description of the problem you observed.
  • If your message concerns copyright or rights, any supporting information you can share (such as your relationship to the work or relevant legal details).

Where to Send Your Message

Please direct all editorial correspondence to [email protected]. This address is monitored by Anne Whitman, Acquisitions Editor. We read every message carefully, though we cannot guarantee a personal reply to every submission.

What Not to Expect

We do not provide customer support for third‑party reading applications, and we cannot offer legal advice. This contact method is intended for catalogue‑related matters only. If you have a general question about public domain law, we recommend consulting a qualified legal professional.

Why Your Feedback Matters

Each report helps us refine the catalogue for all readers. For example, a metadata correction for a title like The Radio Girls at Forest Lodge; or, The Strange Hut in the Swamp — Story, Setting & Ideas ensures it appears in the correct category, while a file issue with Uncle Wiggily on The Flying Rug may prompt us to review the source file. Accessibility improvements, such as adding a table of contents to The Red Cross Girls on the French Firing Line — Reading Companion, make the collection more usable for everyone.

We also consider suggestions for new reading companions or categories. If you have a particular title in mind—such as Fighting Joe; Or, The Fortunes of a Staff Officer or Grace Harlowe's Overland Riders in the Yellowstone National Park—and believe it would benefit from additional context or notes, we would be glad to hear your thoughts.

Thank you for helping us improve the Historical Children’s Library.
