Goodreads Librarians Group discussion

Hello everyone,

we do get a lot of bumping messages in the 'adding new books and editions' folder.
(most) People are trying to follow the rules, but it is impossible for us to keep up with the one week frequency as it is now. Is there a way to lengthen the bumping rules, please? At the moment we are still dealing with topics from April.

thank you for your consideration,
Kind regards Eline

Interesting. I thought it was two weeks for adding books, but it is indeed a week https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... (#15)

How frequent would you like, Eline? A month seems realistic for adding books & looking for a project. A week would be a good idea for page counts. I know they are important to readers (it was one of the reasons I became a librarian) but they aren't as urgent as other edits.

Nobody reads those posts anyway. I had an author a few days ago who claimed to have read it but then said that 1-2 days was outrageous.

Yes I saw this one too! I'm always having a good time reading your interaction to some topics. They're spot on!

I know not many people would read them, but we can try it no? There will always be some patient people who will understand.
