How to Reach the Editorial Team
We welcome thoughtful correspondence from readers, researchers, and rights holders. The best way to contact us is by emailing [email protected], where our senior editor, The Editorial Team Ahuel, reviews every message personally.
When to Write
You may wish to get in touch for any of the following reasons:
- Metadata corrections — If you notice an incorrect title, author name, or category placement (for example, a maritime adventure filed under magic worlds), please let us know.
- File or reader issues — If an ebook fails to open, displays garbled text, or is unreadable on your device or browser, we want to investigate.
- Accessibility problems — We aim to make our catalogue usable for everyone. If you encounter barriers, such as missing alt text or poor contrast, please report them.
- Privacy questions — For inquiries about how we handle personal data, or to request removal of any information, contact us directly.
- Copyright or rights concerns — If you believe a title in our collection infringes your rights, or if you have information about a work’s copyright status, please provide details so we can review the matter promptly.
- General editorial observations — We value thoughtful suggestions, whether about a specific edition, a category description, or the catalogue as a whole.
What to Include in Your Message
To help us address your report efficiently, please include as much of the following as possible:
- The exact URL (web address) of the page in question.
- The full title of the ebook, and the author if known.
- The file format you were using (ePub, PDF, Kindle, etc.).
- The device, browser, or reading software you were using.
- A clear description of the problem you observed.
- If your message concerns copyright or rights, any supporting information you can share.
We read every message carefully and treat each report with the seriousness it deserves.
Our Commitment
We are an independent catalogue dedicated to making historic children’s literature freely available. Your feedback helps us maintain accuracy, readability, and respect for the works and their readers. While we cannot guarantee a response within a specific timeframe, we strive to acknowledge and act on every legitimate concern.
Additional Guidance for Specific Inquiries
If you are writing about a particular title, such as Æsop's fables in words of one syllable or Uncle Wiggily's rolling hoop, mentioning the edition or background notes you consulted can help us locate the exact record. For works in our maritime or wildlife categories, specifying the category name may speed up our review.
When reporting a file issue, please note whether the problem occurs in the browser-based reader or after downloading. If you are using a dedicated e-reading device, including the model name can be useful.
For privacy-related requests, we will confirm receipt and inform you of any steps taken. We do not share personal correspondence without consent.
Thank you for helping us improve the Historical Children’s Library.
