Book Concierge (tessabookconcierge) | 4418 comments Can a librarian verify / correct the first published date of:
At First Bite

This edition (linked above) is stated as "original paperback" with a pub date of November 1, 2011. The book's orig pub date, however is shown as July 1, 2011. There is NO edition in the GR data base that shows an earlier pub date than Nov 1, 2011.

It's a little thing, but it bugs me.

Thanks in advance.

I've combined several version together, corrected the author's name on some records, and adjusted the dates, per WorldCat, Amazon, cover, etc.

Thanks in advance."


I need verify a few things, based on my WorldCat findings. Is this actually published by Wheeler (if so, it should be large print; is that right?), the LP copy has 429 pages. Is that the last printed page number you see?
Please verify the ISBn, too. Check both the back cover and the back of the title page, please.

Also, it appears this is actually a [trade] paperback, NOT a mass-market paperback. (trade is usually about 21-22 cm tall; mmpb are usually between 17-19 cm)

I don't actually have the book ... but the title should NOT include the parenthetical series name in it, in either case.

Would it be possible to add the cover picture to The Owl: A Biography?

The Hardcover does have a picture:

And the Amazon record for the Kindle edition shows the same image as the hardcover.

Trish (trishhartuk) | 3561 comments Sorry, me again. I'm wondering about reading Party, Potions & Peril in the next SRC. However, the Kindle edition seems to have got seperated from the paperback edition: Party, Potions & Peril. I think it's because the author names don't match (there's an extra A. in the paperback), although from the cover and title, it's the same book.

Could someone join the two back together?

Thank you.

Trish (trishhartuk) | 3561 comments Sorry, I've found another oddity for you (mainly as I was thinking of reading it in the Winter challenge).

Rough Justice is a paperback with no page count. It's in with the ISBN: 9780061096105 (ISBN10: 0061096105)
It does have a Worldcat record: which says 463pg. Could you add the page count to this one?

But then it gets weird. There's a seperate record in GR under just the 10-digit ISBN, here: Rough Justice with a stated pagecount of 460pg.

Not sure if they need to be joined together, or if the page count for the second one needs to be corrected to 463pg.

Cheers.

Also, seperately, can you add the PB version of A Deadly December in Edgemont.
ISBN appears to be: 9781998074068
The Amazon record for it is here: .
I can't find a WorldCat record for it.

Thanks again.

Fixed pagination on first issue above. To merge the two takes a Superlibrarian.

Second title was actually in GR, just not combined. Done now.

Andy Plonka (plonkaac) | 4194 comments I have this book in hardcover with the following ISBN Dark Ride. It has 241 pages to the end of the story so it should work for Task 10.6. According to the current page count as stated on Good Reads it has 148 pages which would make it ineligible for this task. Could someone with librarian's status please correct this for me? Thanks,
Andy

Updated to 244 p. per WorldCat (this should be the last printed page number, not the end of the story, per cataloging rules). It should still fit your task.

Fly (fly-me-to-the-moo) | 775 comments Hi, hoping someone can help...

I am reading this: (author = Sherry Claypool Kuehl)
and I find these on goodreads:
- /book/show/1... (author = Snarky N. Burbs)
- /book/show/6... (author = Sherry Kuehl)
- /book/show/1... ("unknown author" but author's name in subtitle)
- /book/show/1... (author = Snarky N Burbs)
- /book/show/1... (unknown author)

none of the ones I've found have the same cover as the one I'm reading (which I quite like), and all of these are referencing the same book... can someone please sort this mess?


message 3735: by Trish (new)

Trish (trishhartuk) | 3561 comments Morning.

I've got a slightly easier one for you. The page count in GR for Better Off Read: A Bookmobile Mystery is listed as 672pg! It should actually only be about half that.

Here's a link to the WorldCat record, where it's a more plausible (for a cozy mystery) 325pg:

Thanks.

I've done the best I can come up with; you're right this is pretty much a mess. Pseudonyms, Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ author edits her own, Library of Congress Authorities gives a different name from what GR author uses here (Sherry Claypool Kuehl), etc. I did add your version of the Kindle edition.

How do I get the page count into GR - or can I just get the book approved for length?

Actually there are 3 listings for this title, so your book should match one. They just weren't combined. Now they are.
