Rosemary | 613 comments I have some more to ask about please ...

The Heart of Texas, R J Scott: 406 pages, 657 KB, 3867 locations in Kindle.

Aloes, Chris Quinton: 246 page PDF

Camwolf, J L Merrow: 267 pages, 405 KB, 3673 locations in Kindle

Also ... these two are not long enough individually I think, but could they be combined to count as one book?
Dulce et Decorum Est, J L Merrow: 74 pages, 298 KB, 1313 locations in Kindle
Snared, J L Merrow: 68 pages, 177 KB, 1193 locations in Kindle

Bea I am not sure if this is the right place to ask, but...
I have downloaded my first e-book Girl with a Pearl Earring. My library's ebook (the one I am listening to) is an audio book and it is marked as Abridged. Publisher is Highbridge Company, 2001. Size:61866 kb. ISBN 9781598871302. Time: 4:18. If I decide to use this, is it acceptable?

Sorry it too so long to get back Bea- this one took a lot of research.

Audiobooks that are noted as being “abridged” may be used to meet the general 100+ page book requirement as long as they are at least 2 hours in length. Abridged audiobooks may NOT be used for tasks with defined longer page requirements as there are no direct print equivalents.

So the answer is a conditional yes- you may use an abridged audiobook for most tasks, but they cannot be used for task that require a specified number of pages like 5.9 The Long and Short of It (100-200, 400+) or 20.3 Sera's Happy, Happy, Happy (250+)

There's a paperback Chasing Eden no verification required. Duplicate/unlinked GR records


message 145: by Dee (new)

Dee (austhokie) | 8947 comments I was going to combine this - but the original one published in 2007 doesn't have the co-authors name on it - so I was hesitant to do so (I would have to change the author on one or the other, add the co-author and then combine) - but I can after I verify some more


message 146: by Dlmrose, Moderator Emeritus (new)

Dlmrose | 18433 comments Mod
Here's the info from the book page
"S. L. Linnea", the author name on the cover of all Eden thrillers, is actually a pseudonym for two persons, Sharon Linnéa and B.K. Sherer.
http://www.edenthrillers.com/authors....


message 147: by Dee (new)

Dee (austhokie) | 8947 comments yeah - I saw that...looks like the new edition is going to have both of their names on it...so I think I can make SL Linnea a pseudonym...but i'll have to play with it


message 148: by Dee (new)

Dee (austhokie) | 8947 comments ok, book has been combined...S.L. Linnea has been designated a pseudonym - so it should all be good
