WorldCat says 352 pages.

Mic can you tell me whats after page 335 in your book?

Like 3 pages of acknowledgments. I didn't mention it since another librarian told me on GR they only count the #s of the actual story.

It could be once all the frontmatter and backmatter are tallied, it equals 352.

The Librarian Manual states:

"This field is for entering the number of pages of a book. The number of pages in a book is meant to include all content except for advertisements and preview chapters for other books. Included end material may include acknowledgments, afterwords, appendices, bibliographies, glossaries, indexes, notes, and suggested discussion questions.

Introductory material paged using roman numerals is not included in the total page count.

Books already in the database often already have page numbers, and these are occasionally incorrect. These can be corrected, but only if you have the exact book with a matching ISBN, or by using WorldCat or another site with reliable page numbering.

(Removed ebook & audiobook info for ease of use in this instance)

Page numbers should match the page numbers as listed in the book. If a book begins on page 6, for example, do not subtract from the final page count to determine the “actual” number of pages - simply list the number on the last page with countable content."


So Mic, with this info, could you have another look at the book and let me know what number the page count should be :)

Worldcat sounds right then.

OK Mic, I'll add the 352.
