How to Reach the Editorial Team

The Public Domain Literature Library is maintained by a small editorial team committed to preserving and presenting classic texts. We welcome thoughtful correspondence that helps us improve the catalogue for all readers.

When to Write

You may wish to contact us in the following situations:

• Metadata corrections — if you notice an incorrect title, author attribution, or category placement (for example, a poetry collection filed under military history, or a maritime work placed in the drama section). Even small errors can affect discoverability, so please let us know.
• File or display issues — if an ebook fails to open, contains unreadable characters, or displays incorrectly on your device or browser. Please include the file format (EPUB, PDF, HTML, etc.) and the software or device you are using. This helps us reproduce and fix the problem.
• Accessibility concerns — if you encounter barriers such as missing alt text, poor contrast, or screen-reader incompatibility. We aim to make our texts usable by everyone, and your feedback helps us identify areas for improvement.
• Privacy questions — if you have queries about how we handle personal data, cookies, or tracking. Our practices are designed to respect your privacy, and we are happy to clarify them.
• Copyright or rights concerns — if you believe a title in our catalogue may not be in the public domain in your jurisdiction, or if you hold rights to a work and wish to discuss its inclusion. Please provide any relevant documentation, such as publication dates or copyright renewal records.
• General editorial observations — thoughtful suggestions, corrections to our reading guides, or comments on the presentation of a particular work are always appreciated. For instance, if a guide for Lancashire Songs misinterprets a local dialect term, we would like to know.

What to Include in Your Message

To help us address your report efficiently, please include as many of the following details as are relevant:

• The exact URL (web address) of the page where you found the issue.
• The full title of the ebook or reading guide.
• The file format you are using (if applicable).
• The device, browser, or software version you were using when the problem occurred.
• A clear description of the observed problem — for example, “Chapter 3 is missing on page 42,” or “The poem ‘The Rime of the Ancient Mariner’ is attributed to the wrong author.”
• Any supporting information, such as a screenshot, a citation from a reliable source, or details about your rights claim. For metadata issues, a link to a trusted reference (e.g., a library catalogue) is helpful.

Our Editorial Address

Please send all correspondence to editor@auacy.com. This mailbox is reviewed by our poetry editor, The Editorial Team Auacy, who oversees the publication pipeline for restored classic novels and coordinates with other editors. While we cannot guarantee an immediate reply, every message is read and considered. If your message relates to a specific category — such as Battles and Military History or Sailors, Pirates & Oceans — mentioning that in the subject line can help route it to the appropriate person.

A Note on Response Times

We are a small independent operation and do not promise a specific turnaround. However, we strive to acknowledge substantive reports within a reasonable period. If your concern is urgent, please indicate that in the subject line. For non-urgent feedback, we appreciate your patience.

Thank you for helping us maintain a reliable and respectful digital library for public-domain literature.
