In your comment box, you will see in the top right hand corner "add book/author". Click on that, then you'll see where you type in the book title or ISBN. Click on SEARCH and you'll have a drop down box where you can choose the correct book. Once you have, click "add" and it'll go straight to the comment box. Then to add the author go back to the same place and change it from "book" to "author", click "add" on the correct author and there it will be!!! Good luck:)

Yes Brenda this will be good. I gave 2 books on reserve at 2 different libraries. Both a new releases. I was number 3 and 5 on the queue so thought they will be a while before they came up. Lo and behold they came in at the same time.
