How to reach The High Desert Ledger, what to send with a correction, and what this desk cannot answer.

Service page · Edition of

The ledger reads its mail at [email protected]. Write in English and put the title of the entry in the subject line if your message is about one that already exists.

A correction

Send the address of the entry, the sentence you believe is wrong, and the source that settles it. A published map, a county record, an agency report or a printed regulation is enough. A social post, a listing or a video is not, because none of them can be checked against a fixed text.

An entry that is corrected is republished with a new checked-on date. The correction is not hidden: the sentence is rewritten and the date moves.

A question

The ledger answers questions about how a thing is measured, read or regulated in this country, and it points to the source that says so. If your question needs a visit to the ground, the ledger will say which office to ask instead.
