Debbie Roth | 28 comments I’m not sure where to post this, but I was looking for a digital alpha list of “1001 list authors” online, and came across this one by Library Thing

Excellent list! Thank you! I will post this in our Helpful Stuff folder. It covers so much information in addition to the list of authors.

Bob Kaufman (bobkaufman) | 711 comments Here is a suggestion for a future A - Z list challenge. The A - Z could be character occupations, including jobs, vocations, hobbies, etc.

Thanks for keeping it interesting and fun.

That sounds good!

Rachel (rachelcrimson) It would be nice to have a topic in the Scavenger Hunt folder to share books that can be used for double-dipping. I've spent a while looking into which ones can be used for double-dipping and seems a shame to not share what I've found!

Oh wow! I've only just seen this link and love it! So much information! Thank you for sharing!

Denise | 231 comments I was trying to find a topic about the authors with multiple works. I'm sure I've run accross comments in the past, but I can't seem to locate them now.

Mainly I'm interested in recommendations for titles if you were just going to choose one by each of these authors.

For example, which of Henry Green's titles are most worthy to be on this list?

Rebekah (bekalynn) | 31 comments Is there a way, or a list or a website where the list can be searched by author? Or alphabetically? All I can find is by time period.

There are (at least) two ways: You can always go to the group‘s bookshelf (scroll up and it‘s on the top right) and then simply click on „author“ and all the books will sort alphabetically by author.
Another way is to use the spreadsheet (look here for more Info https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... ). You can copy it and the sort it, search it, whatever you like.

I’ll try. I feel like Rip Van Winkle when it comes to cyber, digital, techno. Thank for the info

Rebekah (bekalynn) | 31 comments I’m not sure where to put this but I think a list of the books written in links to the description of book would be very helpful. I see titles and then leave page to find book and read about it, often there is more than one book with same title., then have to go back to list.
I’d be happy to do it myself if no one would be over anxious about length of time it took. Also where would I post such a list if made?
