John Gilpin the details on the Ebook it's listing it as 0 pages when it was in fact 254 pages. Thanks


MizziQ I'm pretty sure they always do 0 pages for e-books...considering that there are no actual pages.


Shivani yeah, ALL e-books list as 0 pages.

Well, I have good news for all Ebooks do have publishers default that give you pages just like a real book. Someone who enjoys stats like me would hate to add 50 books and it say that I have read zero pages. The good news is I now have the ability to fix this myself. So it does need to be fixed Kat :), I would understand "It doesn't need to be fixed" if every Ebook was zero but since that's not the case I'll fix every Ebook I have (and have) with the correct number.


MizziQ You do realize that other librarians are going to follow your *corrections* and re-fix them. No one likes it when a librarian comes in and just does it to fix their own personal library. There is nothing to be fixed. The e-books have the same number of *pages* as a real book...it just doesn't have actual pages so we say 0. I don't see what's the problem. On GR they don't take page #'s as seriously. It's nice to be corrected but it's purposeless to try to fix something that doesn't need fixing.

John Gilpin Again it must be okay because that was why I wanted to correct it. They do have "pages" it says the page number while reading it. The information is correct so if you don't like it ignore it but for someone who buys ebooks I don't want to have 0 on 10 out of my 54 books. If its wrong why did they approve it by email and why were 44 of my ebooks already done?

John Gilpin Maybe you think every swipe is a page on a publisher default of say 254 pages it could take 3 swipes to finish one page. why? because that is what a full page would be and it depends on how big the font is. it doesn't change the number of pages but how many swipes it takes


MizziQ I know. I have a nook and I'm familiar with the concept.
