Having Trouble Posting Your Books?

[Julia]

How to Post a Book on the Page
1.Scroll down to "Add Books", and click on that button.

2.Click on "Add Books" and search for your book.When your book comes up, click on the "Add to Group" button.

3. A box will open. Choose shelves- choose Adult Summer Reading 2019 Shelf, and dates started and finished. Close and save.

That's more or less it. Please let me know if you have trouble.

What if the cover image appears faded? That means someone else has already added it to the group page. You can still click on the cover and add your rating and review. This will be counted.

What page are you talking about to post the book? I tried from Bookshelf, clicked on Closter Summer Reading 2019 (did this with several books) and they ended up on the Closter Library Bookshelf. I am unsure what page you are referring to when you say scroll down to "add books", can you clarify please.

The Closter Public Library Goodreads page. It has the "Welcome" banner at the top of the page which is actually a picture of the sign over our circ desk.

Seemed to work for me today, but that is what I did with my other books and they are not there.

I think I just figured this out - they added an extra step this year. When you add a group book, find book, choose shelves, close, you then have to click the add group book button.
If you choose shelves but the Adult Summer Reading 2019 shelf does not appear as an option, that means you are just adding the book to your own shelves. You still have to close it , then choose shelves again. (I'll walk through it and post the steps.)
