The likely reason you're not finding it in the sources is that it's a short story, so libraries won't have it catalogued. LibraryThing itself is not a source.
You'll need to add it manually.

If you're comfortable with browser scripts, there's a GreaseMonkey / TamperMonkey script that scrapes the record into a manual addition form.

Note it's not perfect, and does need work on the subsequent record. It is being updated; so may not work very well at the moment. It does save a lot of time when you find the exact edition of a work, or have a run of things like issues of periodicals you want to catalogue individually. (When I catalogued our comics collection, I used to manage around 30 issues an hour with the script - you just have to remember to update the new record BEFORE you hit save...)
