Time-consuming Fixes Goodreads Author

[Paw3pals]

Been finding errors from recent onix ingram imports. Most errors have been:

. a bunch of authors are listed and only 1 or 2 of them are correct via ISBN WorldCat search,
. title is wrong as it doesn't match description (usually ISBN via WorldCat gives correct info),
(or, if other authors, check them for similiar books & look for same description (found some at Amazon via name search)),
. many books need separating after corrections - most of the books are combined; highest I've hit so far is 5 wrong & different books combined in a total of 8 together. Been using the separate tool after correcting them all.

I have been working on the below author for a while, there are many for this one author & I need to take a break.

Aaron Carr (Goodreads Author)

The above Goodread's Author writes children's books. Scanning his books, there are still at least 36 books (with unknown number of combined editions) that look like they need checking (I stopped counting on about page 5 (of 7), because some were duplicating).

If any other librarians would like to help, it would be appreciated. It is slow going as some corrections lead to other corrections, and so on, back and forth.

Edit: When scanning combined editions, different publisher is frequently a clue to wrong info - so far tonight, all the publishers have been correct.

Well, got it done; down to 4 pages of books now.

Of course, now there are 6 other authors to check.

It appears that November 19, 2013, was the date all the bolluxed imports were done.
