Reaching the Editorial Office
The Public Domain Literature Library is maintained by an independent editorial office. We welcome correspondence that helps us improve the catalogue and serve readers more effectively. Below are the kinds of matters we can assist with, along with guidance on what to include in your message.
When to Write
You may wish to contact the catalogue project if you notice:
- Incorrect metadata — an inaccurate title, author attribution, or publication date for any ebook or reader’s guide. For example, if a work like The Bond of Black — A Reader’s Guide lists the wrong author or year, we want to know.
- Category placement — a work that appears to belong in a different section of the catalogue, such as Wandering Heroes Classic Adventures or Young Readers Enchanted Adventures. If The Second Jungle Book seems misfiled, let us know.
- Source link or catalogue issues — If a Project Gutenberg source link is unavailable, or if a catalogue page contains a broken link or display problem, please let us know.
- Source link or catalogue issues — If a Project Gutenberg source link is unavailable, or if a catalogue page contains a broken link or display problem, please let us know.
- Accessibility problems — difficulty using the catalogue or its ebooks with screen readers, text-to-speech software, or other assistive technologies. We strive to make our content accessible, and your feedback helps us improve.
- Privacy questions — inquiries about how the site handles personal data, cookies, or reading activity. Where enabled, we respect your privacy choices. If you have concerns about data collection or wish to know more about our practices, please write.
- Copyright or rights concerns — if you believe a title in the catalogue may not be in the public domain in your jurisdiction, or if you hold rights to a work that should not be distributed here. For example, if A Son of Perdition: An Occult Romance — A Reader’s Guide raises questions about its public domain status in your country, we need to hear from you.
- General editorial observations — suggestions, corrections, or thoughtful comments about the collection, its presentation, or its accompanying notes. Whether it’s a comment on Doom of the House of Duryea — A Reader’s Guide or a broader idea for the catalogue, we value your input.
What to Include in Your Report
To help us address your message quickly and accurately, please include as many of the following details as are relevant:
- The page URL where the issue appears.
- The ebook title and, if applicable, the author’s name.
- Source link or catalogue issues — If a Project Gutenberg source link is unavailable, or if a catalogue page contains a broken link or display problem, please let us know.
- The device or browser and its version (e.g., Kindle Paperwhite 11th gen, Firefox 120, iOS 17 Safari).
- A clear description of the observed problem — what you expected and what actually happened.
- Any supporting rights information, if your message concerns copyright or licensing. For instance, if you hold rights to The Secret of the League: The Story of a Social War — Reading Companion, please provide details.
