Oh, that's right. Thank you for jogging my mind there.

Kevin, that sounds like a sound plan to me. Linny, what are your thoughts on this?

They are cute, you certainly don't want to lose them. I could see them going into a single section. The question is do you want to introduce the book with them in section 00 or end the book with them?

Well, the author did choose to place them where they are. To preserve the originality of the book, should they be moved? Possibly the mw can be more specific in the description of each section? Stating that each section is to be read to section xxxx, including the , title of small, titled section.

Thoughts here?

That also would be fine. You could add them to the start or the end of a section. The titles could be added to the title.
Example Section 1: The Man Who Came Back / Four to the Good.

Please put the claimed information in the Notes section. It's easy to forget it and have it end up in the catalog. Also, cataloging doesn't like quotations. Please use a double apostrophe instead. I modified section one as an example.

End of the section as that works well with the author's placement. I did as you have shown above, please do look and let me know it is what you meant or not so I can follow through with the other parts.

I don't think I would capitalize the second title but it's really up to you. What you think looks nice for the catalog will be fine.

I saw the capitals as well, I did not do that. I only copy and pasted.

I do think capitols are the way to go so I will change it.

There are actually some with multiples of those odd sections...hmmm. Now I do beleive it may work best to do mark in the mw that following the page numbers is neccessary as there are more lines beyond the end of the section?

linny · Post by **linny** » July 21st, 2020, 9:09 am

I don't think you need to as long as the titles are in the MW. I did sections 2 and 4 for you. Will that work for you?

adr6090 · Post by **adr6090** » July 21st, 2020, 9:19 am

I have edited the section list, see which way you think may work out best and let me know, please.

linny · Post by **linny** » July 21st, 2020, 9:25 am

Whichever way you want will be fine for cataloging.

As BC, I find that some readers don't pay attention to the Notes, so you may have some necessary edits if you go with that method.

I am so sorry for the above confusing statement. I will not leave the capitols is what I meant.

okay than I will put in the additional titles following the main section title. Once they are all n will be the best time to get this set....thank you.
