Ah, and by commenting you just volunteered for the work, right neighbor? (Born a Finn)

Yes they do, but only a hundred book batches, and keeping track of where you are is a pain. If I only had to do it once I'd consider it, but being lazy I know I will need to do it every now and then, hence the need for automation.

That is exactly what I am trying to do. And yes, I already have all of the Free Library and the originals of the books that were pulled as well as the second editions.
