I will, but do you know why the Bookshare system does that.  And, by the Wey, 
Shelley, thanks for the help; its much appreciated.

  Change the information to match the book you have.

  The database has given me wrong book titles and the like before with the 
right ISBN.

  The people who burned witches at the stake never for one moment thought of 
their act as violence;
   rather they thought of it as an act of divinely mandated righteousness.
   The same can be said of most of the violence we humans have ever committed. 
-Gil Bailie, author and lecturer (b. 1944)

    I have a book by Harold Bloom called Gerard Manley Hopkins.  The book and 
the Internet both give the book the ISBN of 0-87754-691-6. The trouble is that 
that number brings up a different book--one about criminal justice.  What does 
one do in such a case?
