Suggestion: A "view newly added books" option
An option to view just the most recently added books.
Useful when adding large numbers of books at once. Would make fixing up the tags, etc. afterward much easier. |

Most people achieve this by temporarily attaching a tag identifying such books for this purposes.
An alternative way that does not require the use of tags and works for most books is to simply sort in the GUI in reverse order on the Date field. |

A 'new book' tag would be great if it could be added automatically when importing books. Easy enough to do by hand when it's 5 or so books, more annoying if you've just raided PG for 50+ titles.
Actually, being able to set tags when adding a book would be excellent. (ie. a screen popping up asking you for any tags you might want on the 50 books you've just added) Last edited by Daemon; 08-23-2010 at 03:49 AM. |

Try putting date:today into the searchbar. Save it as a custom search and a restriction if it's useful.

If I remember, before importing I set the 'ToDo' restriction. That way after importing, the library view will contain only books that already have or that should have the ToDo tag. All that remains is to select all and apply ToDo. |

Ah, I hadn't really noticed that new entries were automatically stuck at the top. That does make it a bit easier.
