VMom (votermom) | 23 comments Okay, I saw that this needs rescuing.

I have a different edition of this book, published by New Day Publishers (Philippines), with no ISBN.
It does have a Lib of Congress Catalog number.
What should I do?
I am not very good at adding books.

I would add it manually as a new edition, and then combine them. You cannot use an edition with no ISBN to rescue the edition with one.


❂ Murder by Death  (murderbydeath) You can add your edition of the book without an ISBN number -it is not required (older books, pre-1970 were never issued one). Just fill in all the fields you can for your book, in the "add book manually" page. If you have the cover art, you can add that, but if you don't it's not a worry - someone will add it later on. :)

(I hope I did it right)

Now how can it get combined with the other edition?
Thanks.
