NGS: Quarterly. How do series work? To create a series or add a work to it, go to a "work" page. The "Common Knowledge" section now includes a "Series" field. Enter the name of the series to add the book to it. Works can belong to more than one series. In some cases, as with Chronicles of Narnia, disagreements about order necessitate the creation of more than one series.

Tip: If the series has an order, add a number or other descriptor in parenthesis after the series title (eg., "Chronicles of Prydain (book 1)"). What isn't a series? Series was designed to cover groups of books generally understood as such (see Wikipedia: Book series). Also avoid publisher series, unless the publisher has a true monopoly over the "works" in question. NGS: Quarterly v.6-11. NGS: Quarterly v.7-9. IA: Genealogical (Quarterly) Magazine.
