Is there a way to add a link to a webpage to my library catalog? I created an excel index for a journal in my collection and would love to include that in my catalog. But as everything is coming from LibraryThing I wasn't sure if there was a way to do it. thanks

You can put a link in comments.

>1 nonob: what >2 MarthaJeanne: said: they will come through as "Local notes" on TinyCat's end, and you can re-name that field if you like from your Detail page Settings: https://www.librarycat.org/admin/settings/detail

I think I was hoping to have a record that is a link. For example a record is called something like "Presentation by John Smith on 12/20/2020 about XXXX"and then a link to YouTube. I understand that I could put the url into the local notes but would I create a dummy "book" to attach that to? I guess I am trying to figure out how to game the system a bit. Thanks for your help with this.

>4 nonob: One of the options when entering a work is streaming video, so it isn't really a dummy, but a legitimate record. (You have to click 'show all' under media to see more than the standard dozen formats)
