Inventory Field

I am in the process of inventorying our church library. I used to find the inventory field under Your books/tags but today it is not available as an option. Please tell me where to find it now?

You can add the inventory field to one of your five display views.

>1 HolyApostles: You can access LibraryThing's "Take Inventory" feature by going to Your Books, clicking the dropdown to the right of "covers" near the top of the page, and selecting "Take Inventory" from that dropdown menu.

You can also add an Inventory Status column to your catalog display there by going to your Display Style Settings as gilroy suggests, and dragging Inventory Status over from the Catalog Fields to one of your display styles: https://www.librarything.com/settings/display.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

You didn't find it because of a bug.
