(Closed) I don't believe this is part of a series

[Lauren]

Per the Librarian Manual:

Imprints and other unrelated collections of works (usually by multiple authors) are not series. They can be grouped with a Listopia list, or the collection/imprint information can be listed in the edition field, but they should not be grouped into a series, or listed on a book's title line.

As a general rule, a book is only part of a series if that designation would apply to all editions of a work. To be a series, books should have characters and/or universes in common. In the case of imprints and other non-series collections, it is common for some of these books to be published under numerous other imprints as well.

It does not seem that "The Stirling / South Carolina Research Edition of the Collected Works of James Hogg Series" (https://www.goodreads.com/series/3345...) meets this definition.

Can someone please help with this?

Indeed. Collected works are not a series, and a series should apply to all editions, not just one from a specific publisher.
Series deleted.
