I volunteer in a small club library which carries both Dutch and English books. However, I don't speak or read Dutch.

I am currently classifying the English children's books by series (for example, the Harry Potter books), with the order of books within a series. I would like to do the same for the Dutch children's books.

Can you tell me if there are any sites in English where I can find the series order for books by an author?

I don't know any english sites, but wouldn't a site in dutch work just as well, if there is a list in the right order? Then you don't need to understand the rest of the page, but you can see the right order. Wikipedia has a lot of these lists.

Or you could ask dutch people here to help. :-)

Thank you. I will certainly have a look at Wikepedia (and LibraryThing) when I get to the Dutch section.

I thought this was me asking the Dutch people here to help :0 o

There is a website listing the book titles by series by the same writer.
I believe these books are for juveniles and children, and maybe only English language writers.This is a less tedious method to research.

As for the Dutch language writers, you have to research in the internet smartly.

Wikipedia is one of the website. Search: By author- full name. There is bound to be
a write-up or bibliography of all the writer's books.

or

Google/Yahoo:

Search: A complete list of works or books by _____________(Author's Name).
