Goodreads Librarians Group discussion

I've been adding a bazillion (that's an exact number, by the way) books to my "Books I Own" list.

And, for some reason, this copy of "Through the Looking-Glass" appears at the top of the list when it's sorted alphabetically. Before the books that start with "A". Before the books that start with a number. Before the book that starts with a quotation mark.

Any chance that there's something amiss in the invisible "sort by" field?

Come to think about it, that book that starts with a quotation mark looks a little wonky too, since it comes before the numbers and the rest of the "A"s are after the numbers, but since it's the title of that book is "A is for Angry" (ISBN 9780894805073), at least it's not too far off the mark.

Assuming your copy is the one linked to this thread, there was no sort by title. I've added one, but it might take a day or 2 to fully reflect the change.

Also, took the quotes off of A is for Angry. There is no reason for them to be there. The quotes aren't on the title page, copyright page, or World Cat.

Yes, I made extra sure to link the right version, since there are a kajillion (again, an exact number) versions of that book.

This is the sort of thing that makes me shake my head and say "I don't understand computers at all."

It all sounds good now. Thank you!

Oops, except now "A is for Angry" is being alphabetized under "I". I wonder if "A is for Alibi" has a similar issue?

Should be fixed now. The A was being send to the end of the sort title by mistake.

And both A and T are now being properly alphabetized. It's a beautiful thing. Thanks for your work! :)
