Rihards | 7 comments It seems that there is no series "Sprīdīša bibliotēka" - if so please create one and add all the books that come up for that search.

Additionally, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... is #11 in the series.

Added to the edition field: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Rihards | 7 comments Thank you, a few confusing things.

a) Searching for "sprīdīša bibliotēka #11" finds https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... - which is #4. Why so?

b) Looks like "publisher's series" cannot be clicked to see all included books like "normal series" can - or am I missing something here?

Arenda | 26449 comments a) That's because one of the other editions of that book had a (different) publisher's series in the title field, that one is #11

b) On GR, a series should apply to all editions of a book. That's why a specific publisher's collection that only applies to one book, is not valid. (And also because for a series, books have to share characters/settings).

I came across this list: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/9... where all books from Sprīdīša bibliotēka are collected. It's the only available alternative for books that belong to a publisher's collection where a GR series doesn't apply.
