Mattias Eriksson | 9 comments Hi,

Today I did the following: I added a new release of an existing book, #1 in a series. I also added the soon-to-be-released book #2 in the series, and in both cases tried to add the name of the series inside parenthesis, as instructed. Unfortunately, the system did not pick up on the series name and made it clickable, so I have these questions/requests:

1. Does a new series need to be added manually by a librarian to be clickable and redirecting to a series page? Or, did it not work because of the original release of the first book did not contain the series reference in the title?

2. Could I please ask a librarian to link the two books together and make the series part in the titles become clickable?

The first release entry of the first book, WITHOUT the series name in the title: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
My entry of the new release of the first book, WITH the series name in the title: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
My entry of the soon-to-be-released second book, WITH the series name in the title: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Yes, it does.
