I want to make sure I can get all of my data out of LibraryThing before I commit to putting it all IN LibraryThing. :) I've played with the export formats, but it doesn't appear any of them include the From Where Acquired field. Am I overlooking something? Any way to export data and include this field? Thanks!

It should. I'm assigning LT_Ammar to look into this.

Just checking in. It's been a couple of months, and I haven't heard anything. Any chance the From Where Acquired field can be added to the exports? Thanks!

It funny, I could swear I had taken care of this long ago.
However, when I went through a test export, it became apparent that I hadn't.

Anyways, 'From Where' should now be in excel/tab-separated exports.

Thanks for reporting.

Just tried it, and it works like a charm. Thanks!
