Long story short, last night instead of updating 150 books with the proper information I accidentally updated almost 800 books with the wrong information. Luckily, possibly, the way I store my books on my Nook the location would give me the information I need to fix them but with just over 3000 books currently on my Nook I'd rather not have to search for them manually. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: I'm currently using v9.22
I thought this info used to be available in Device/Card A views, but I no longer see it.

So...
A round about way (Be very careful to NOT to complete the task)


Select a few books (1-5 is good):
Right-click on the selection: Remove Books: Remove Matching Books from Device: The Location (Path) is in the last column in the list

be sure to CANCEL
