Hi Alison
the way I do it and makes sense to me is the following.
Title of book parenthesis series name, book number with number sign close
parenthesize
For example
Alligators (Nature's Children #1)
That is how I do it and makes it easier to look for the books using
Bookshares current system.
Plus I know they are part of a series where even in my library system
sometimes it can be a guess if they are.
