Hi members,Without wanting to slow down some people's desire to deposit, I would propose that when you deposit sheets in the form of a songbook, you do so only on the condition that you include the index (table of titles) of the songbook.
This would make it much easier for everyone to decide if the download is worthwhile and, more importantly, to find titles that might be of interest to each of us.
I was particularly surprised recently to see Songbooks of various artists containing about a hundred titles without a list; when you have a lot of these collections, finding a title afterwards becomes quite long.
In short, this is my proposal, to facilitate classification and retrieval.
Good music,
LisaCallas

Good evening,
It would be a very good idea to know the titles in the collections
In the Tutorials section, I have placed a model of what I do with the Excell program
Other proposals are welcome
Have a nice evening

Thanks jodi,
And you can also just make a simple list in Word, e.g.
So here's what you might consider as an index to the titles of one of the "Songbooks" in "Miscellaneous" (if the formatting fits, here once on the Forum):
I writen the songs
A dreamn is a wish your heart makes
A foggyn day
A littlen street where old friends meet
Autumnn leaves (Les feuilles mortes)
Basinn Street Blues
Beyondn the blue horizon
Beyondn the reef
Buttonsn and bows
Calcutta
Cast yourn fate to the wind
Caterina
Chim chimn cher-ee
Countn every star
Cruisingn down the river
Daddy'sn little girl
Didn't we
Dolores
Everythingn is beautiful
Fascination
Feelings
Five footn two, eyes of blue
From men to you
Galveston
Gentle onn my mind
Goldenn earrings
Happyn days
Happyn trails
Harpern Valley P.T.A.
Hello,n Dolly!
Hindustan
I don't want to walk without you
I left myn heart in San Francisco
I saw hern standing there
I wannan be your man
In a little Spanish town
It's a small world
It's then talk of the town
It ain'tn necessarily so
It was a very good year
Jamaican farewell
Java
Jealous
Justn walking in the rain
Kentuckyn Babe
Let an smile be your umbrella (On a rainy, rainy day)
Liechtensteinern polka
Love'sn been good to me
Love is here to stay
Lullaby of the leaves

Hello Lisa
it's true that the formatting leaves something to be desired.
As far as your work in Word is concerned, to convert it to Pdf (which is recognized by P-A) your work is saved as, (you choose the Pdf extension) and that's it.
Have a nice day.

THANK YOU Cindou for the "anti-n"...!
And, Jodi, it was voluntary on my part to leave my list in Word this time (I usually put my lists in pdf) because I simply wanted some text to offer here the list of a Songbook already submitted by another member. I didn't want to put this list in the Tutorials.
Thanks to both of you,
Lisa

It was, as you said Cindou, a good idea but, as you also wrote and rightly so, one had to have doubts about its application as far as I can see...

Good evening.
That was my question, thank you for informing me.
Cindou, I have sent you a mail about an example of possible ranking of the collections.
Have a nice evening.

Hello
to know if a title is present in a collection or a songbook there is this site which already made - partially - the work and it is already a very very big work.
Now it concerns only the songbook of English songs ... remains to be done for all that is collections
http://www.seventhstring.co.uk/fbindex.html
If a searched title returns an answer with the name of the songbook which contains it, it only remains to search on P-A or elsewhere if the songbook is present.

Hello,
I'm coming back to this...I repeat my suggestion to take the trouble to prepare a small list as the first page of a collection that would be published without a table of contents.It seems that I'm almost alone in finding it unpleasant to scroll through 50, 60 pages and often more to check if a collection that has just been published wouldn't have somewhere in it a piece of which one would like to have the leaf...
This could be a good resolution for 2018, no?! ;-)
Thanks for understanding the usefulness of this self explanatory suggestion.
