I have a small list of books, approx half a dozen, that I have seen in the bookstore but are not in the system at PBS. How can I go about getting these books added? I would like to put them on my wish list but if I must buy them I would like to post them later for someone else to enjoy.

Are these new releases? Sometimes, just searching for a new book by its ISBN will trigger the system to add it. Try looking for them again a few hours after your first search.

Make sure you remove any spaces or dashes from the ISBN.
