Gives me zero results :(

1 comments

I'm also getting zero results, even after adding the books I currently have on hold in Libby to my "To-Read" list on Goodreads!

Here's some info for bellamk's debugging :)

Search query[0]

My Goodreads "To-Read" shelf[1]

The books on Libby[2][3][4][5]

Could it be because your “to-read” Goodreads shelf is private?
oh yeah I think it's the same for the other person too -- theirs is set to only be visible to Goodreads users
that was it! i had to make my profile public (not my shelf)
That was it for me! Thank you :)
Thank you both for the links!! I’ll look into this
Hope it helps! A cool feature might be to be able to select which shelf to check as well, for giving recommendations to friends from my "Read" shelf, etc. :)

Btw, I was curious to see how it looked when it works. I hope you're not planning to borrow "The Great Believers", "Watchmen", "The Paper Palace" or "Harlem Shuffle" from the New York Public Library[0]. It currently has a listed wait time of 9007199254740991 days, or ~652,615.4 cosmic ages.

yeah I definitely want this to work for other "lists" of books and other goodreads shelves is a good idea!

And oooops fixed that bug :) thanks for letting me know
