Why Can't I add ASIN books?   Go to last post Go to last unread
#1 Posted : Saturday, October 5, 2013 1:04:26 PM(UTC)

I seem to have some ASIN numbered books instead of ISBN.  One in particular was published in 1980 and I'm not able to import.  Why is that?  The book is called Enjoy! Recipes from the Women's Symphony League of Austin. 


Thanks for helping me get myself established here.

Because of the way we retrieve data from Amazon (by ISBN number) we can only add books if they have an ISBN.  It is very time-consuming to add a book's data manually so we are not able to do it for a large volume of books.  However, we will add the data for any non-ISBN books that a member wants to index.  Just email us at [email protected] with a request and supply book title, subtitle, author, publisher, country and date of publication, format, number of pages and a scan or photo of the book cover (don't worry about sizing or cropping as we can do that here).

Thank you Jane.  Once I finish adding all my books I plan on working on indexing those books.
