it seems to be working now - it found one of your test books above, OK.

but it seems to run more slowly on amazon than on Overdrive libraries ?
i just ran a new test selection: a wish list of 122 books that i have recommended for purchase at my local library.
it found 12 matches in KU but took 24 minutes to complete.

So only 10% of the books that my local will probably get around to buying anyway in the next year ( they have a pretty good record of slowly buying books that i put on their recommend list )

Speedwise, I go back & test the same 122 books but this time test only against my local library ( in case they have bought any recently! ) it is running much faster.... because it is searching a much smaller database or because amazon is slow ?

It finishes in 4 1/2 mins compared with 24 minutes for the Amazon search
