As a matter of fact, I have come across a few duplicates myself. I just left them, thinking that readers might for some reason or another want one rather than the other and if both were there it would give them a choice. However, might there be a good reason to have only one copy of each title in the collection? "If you tremble with indignation at every injustice then you are a comrade of mine."

It really wouldn't be a bad thing to leave them and let people choose which copy to read. *smile* I just pointed it out as a simple point of information. Blessings.

Just my speculation.

I'm finding more and more duplicate books in the collection. One is usually a publisher quality copy and the other is a copy submitted by a volunteer. Blessings.

Whom do I email about this? Thanks.
