Here, but Not There

Is there a quick and easy way to find books that are in my Collection A but not in my Collection B?

https://www.librarything.com/stats/MEMBERNAME/collections has lots of useful bits, but not that one.

Use Power Edit:
1. Open collection A and tag all books with a tag.
2. Open collection B and remove the tag from all books in the collection (if the tag is not on the book, nothing will happen to the book).

Alternatively use the overlap links from >2 MarthaJeanne: as one of the views in Power Edit (for the second step). It will work faster if B is a very big collection but if it is not huge, it won’t make much of a difference.

Not very scalable and needs to be done every time you need it but works fast enough. :)

The books still carrying the tag are in A but not in B.
