| Jun 23, 2020 at 10:50 | comment | added | Flater | Editing the list implies changing the list itself rather than taking a subset from it. If a library edits its list of books, then the library's entire book collection is different than it was before. But if a library makes a filtered list of books (e.g. non-fiction), then they're showing a subset of their entire book collection. OP's question leaves either interpretation possible so I'm not saying this answer is wrong, but I do want to point out that it only applies to some, not all cases applicable to the question | |
