     Just a quick question regarding page counts on ebooks. I know that in general, ebooks are not given a page count unless the publisher's website notes a specific page count for it. Is WorldCat also an acceptable source for page counts re: ebooks, or is it publisher only?

   Publisher only, but there are a few exceptions:
      Publisher only, but there are a few exceptions:In case of fixed page counts (pdf format), they can be added.
Using a tool like Calibre to estimate the page count is also allowed, but that must be stated explicitly in a change comment or librarian note when the page count is added.
 Thanks so much for the response.
      Thanks so much for the response.Would it be alright if I posted some ebook page counts to add in this thread, or should I start a new one? There's 6 total items.
