Someone responded in a thread last week that you can tell if a book was requested via auto-request. I looked at the book details, but didn't see anything that indicated that. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. Can anyone help? Thanks! |

Don't know of any specific way, but do know that if a book is on auto request, at least for me, it usually shows up requested before I've even gotten out of the area where I posted the book, so I'd say that if the book shows up requested immediately after posting, it was on auto request. Pat |

I had that same question and this is what Sara said You can tell if it was auto-accepted by checking the Details icon on your Transaction. It will tell you when the book was offered and accepted. |

Ah, that's where I read it, Lisa. I knew I had seen it somewhere. I guess I thought that meant it would tell if it was auto-requested. Thanks. |

This is all I see when I click the details icon. I'm the sender... The book had been on my bookshelf for a while before it was requested. Two days away from going lost and it hasn't been marked received, even though USPS says it was delivered weeks ago. I thought I might be able to tell if the requestor was even aware that it had been mailed.

Autorequest should only apply if a WL book is posted. A member posting a WL book would trigger the autorequest if the person is first in line. If a book was on your shelf for a while then the member would have had to actually order it, either directly from your shelf or if it came up FIFO and your copy was next up. If a person had their WL on hold for a long time and it came off hold then some of the books may changed from WL to orderable. That might trigger an order, but it would come up as a WL offer and they would still need to affirm they wanted it before it would go through. |

I didn't look at it when I posted it... Thought it might be a case where it was on somebody's wishlist but they didn't have a credit (you know, when you get the pink W). At any rate, it was marked received last night (of course). |
