I haven't come across anything like this but I want to see the answer too. If I found that myself I'd leave it be. I'd just copy and paste 'EasyRead Super Large 24pt' since it must be even larger than average large print for it to be called "super large". This is interesting.
Abigail, I've been leaving them as is, but I think your solution is a better one. I think I'll do that in the future, unless Rivka/others disagree.
I've come across ones that say something like "Thorndike Romantic Collection Large Print" and I just put Large Print in Edition for those because the other text has no value really.But for the example Paule gave, the extra text gives descriptive indicators about the format of the book. I would be inclined to cut & paste the whole thing into Edition. If you put the other part in in the notes field, then someone just browsing the book won't see it and have no idea it's there. They'd have to go to the edit page to see if and most users don't do that.




Any thoughts on how the following should be handled:
Desperate Remedies, Volume 1 of 3 (EasyRead Super Large 24pt Edition)
Should:
1)"EasyRead Super Large 24pt Edition" be entered in to the Edition field
or
2) Large Print
Edit:
Also should we add to the Edition Field the "EasyRead Comfort Edition" text?
