How to Reach the catalogue project
We welcome thoughtful correspondence from readers, researchers, and rights holders. The simplest way to get in touch is by writing to editor@ooths.com. All messages are read by the catalogue project, who Catalogue maintenance uses source records and bibliographic context.
When to Write
You may wish to contact us about any of the following:
- Metadata corrections — if a title, author name, or contributor credit appears incorrect or incomplete. Include the page URL and the exact title as it currently appears.
- Category placement — if a book seems misclassified among the catalogue sections (for example, placed in “History, Empires & Change” when it belongs in “Wandering Heroes Classic Adventures”).
- Unreadable or corrupted files — if an ebook fails to open, displays garbled text, or is missing sections. Specify the file format (EPUB, PDF, Kindle, etc.) and the device or browser you were using.
- Reader failures — if a particular reading system, app, or browser presents the book poorly (layout breaks, missing images, font issues).
- Accessibility problems — if the file lacks semantic structure, alternative text for images, or other features that make it usable with assistive technologies.
- Privacy questions — if you have concerns about how your personal data is handled when using the site.
- Copyright or rights concerns — if you believe a work in the catalogue is not in the public domain in your jurisdiction, or if you are a rights holder with a legitimate claim.
- General editorial observations — thoughtful notes about the presentation, the introductory essays, or the selection of editions.
What to Include in Your Message
To help us investigate efficiently, please provide as much of the following as is relevant:
- The exact URL of the page in question.
- The ebook title and, if applicable, the specific edition or version.
- The file format you tried to use (e.g., EPUB, PDF, MOBI, TXT).
- The device or browser you were using, including operating system version if known.
- A clear description of the observed problem — what you expected and what happened instead.
- If the issue relates to copyright, any supporting information you can share (such as the publication date or your relationship to the work).
What We Do Not Do
We do not provide legal advice, confirm the public-domain status of works in every jurisdiction, or guarantee a response within a specific timeframe. Every report is reviewed, but we cannot commit to individual replies. We do not accept unsolicited manuscripts or submissions.
Privacy
Messages sent to the editorial address are treated as confidential and are not shared outside the catalogue team. We do not sell or trade contact information.
How We Handle Your Report
When you write to us, the catalogue project. Depending on the nature of the report, we may consult reference sources, compare editions, or test files across different devices. Corrections to metadata are typically applied within a few days; file repairs may take longer if the source material requires re-digitisation. If your report leads to a change, the page will be updated, but we do not send individual confirmations unless the matter is urgent or requires further correspondence.
For copyright or rights concerns, we take each claim seriously. If you are a rights holder and believe a work should not be distributed from this site, please include details of the original publication and your relationship to the work. We will review the matter promptly and, if appropriate, remove the item from the catalogue.
Suggestions and Feedback
Beyond problem reports, we are glad to receive suggestions for additions to the catalogue — particularly lesser-known works that are genuinely in the public domain. If you have a recommendation, please include a brief note on the work's significance and a reliable source for its public-domain status. We read every suggestion but cannot promise to add every title.
Thank you for helping us maintain a reliable and thoughtful catalogue of classic literature.
