James | 6 comments I've had real difficulty combining this

Persuasion

with

Persuasion

I've tried used auto-combine but the Scholastic Classics edition just doesn't join up properly.

Would someone mind having a go at combing these, please, and maybe letting me know what I was doing wrong?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Please be very careful when using auto-combine. It will combine editions that have the same title, but a different content, like adaptations, that should not be combined. It ignores Librarian Notes stating that edition should not be combined with others. Undoing is impossible. Recreating the situation before is at best very time consuming when there are good Librarian notes available.

Filtering for a title/word from the title does not return all instances of that word for popular authors/books.

For popular authors, using the "filter works by title" at the top of the page, choosing the first letter of the title will usually work better.


James | 6 comments Thank you for combining, and for your advice re auto-combine - I'll bear that in mind in the future!
