I always get the Series inside the bracket of the Title.
Studia Grammatica is the series: not part of the title. It is rare that the title of the book would contain a bracket. Personally, I have never seen a single book that has a bracket in its title.

I have been cutting and pasting the parts.

It would be nice if the import filter could break them into the correct fields.

I am talking about the Autofill from Internet feature. I am assuming that is not customizable by the user. is it the same filter as the one we have in the Import Filter manager?

Bookends imports the title that's provided. There is no way it can distinguish between a parenthetic entry by Amazon vs. a title containing parentheses. For fun I googled for "books with parentheses in the title" and the first hit listed 13.

Autofill uses the same filter as the online search import. You can edit it, and as long as you don't change the filter name Bookends will use it.

That is interesting. Have never seen them.

OK, I will probably use Keyboard Mastro to help me here. In my field, almost all the books are written unders some book series. Hectic process to move the series to the right field.

Sad Worldcat doesn't have API; would have been the best source for books.

Thanks for the reply Jon, as always.
