Thanks to Verbum 6 Scripture Study, I have 12 volumes of Come and See Catholic Bible Studies.
Eleven of those volumes are monographs. One of them is a commentary. Which is correct?
The eleven monographs are these. The commentary is this one.
Hey, you're right. I didn't notice that. I can see how they could be categorized either way.
This is a symptom of a problem I have experienced in other Series.
Faithlife, please be consistent in the meta-data for all the resources within a series.

You don't want consistency within series as that can result in incorrect coding. Whether something is labeled as a commentary or monograph has to do with the structure of the index - a sequential index that goes through some portion of the Bible will be a commentary; non-sequential or intermingling of multiple books will be a monograph. That's a vast oversimplification but it directly affects how the book functions in the product. You may often find problems with the coding, but you should always be able to describe it in terms of not getting the expected behavior.
I do see several that appear to be mislabeled i.e. at least 4 more that I would expect to be Bible commentary.
I'm not clear on the distinction. In the screenshot below, the volume on the right is the one with type = Bible Commentary. The one on the left is type = Monograph. The indexes appear to be similarly mixed.
I just received an update and now all 12 are monographs. So I guess that answers that. [:)]
If users want consistency monographs was the only possible answer.
Does that mean that we need to change our collections definitions from 'type:commentary' to 'type:commentary OR type:monographs'?
Thanks for pointing out this set. Opened "Exile and Return" and read the introduction. Very well thought out advise on running a small group Bible Study.
Now I have fifteen of them. Thirteen are monographs; two are Bible Commentaries.
Matthew and Luke are commentaries.
Mark and John are not.
I am unconvinced that quite all of these titles have been typed correctly.
by my understanding, the following are Bible Commentaries:

However, I have reason to suspect that study guides may be broken out into their own category as part of the integration of WordSearch.
