I didn't read all replies, but one of the things I noticed is because I share with others, these books do show up in the "Shared + Owned" if you look there you will see them. Edit: However, this does not fix the issue others have mentioned about the books that are not showing except under "All" such as Legendary Magic Items (I see quite a few more than just this one).
I do kind of like the Library, at least the filtering part, the pics of the books are a bit too big for my tastes. Since we're throwing requests out there, the one thing I'd like to see in it is a Filter by Release Date vs Filter by Alphabetical.
Also, another interesting bug for this one, I just bought the One-Shot Wonders: Holiday Adventure Pack and my Library says that my Owned and Shared+Owned went up by 1, but that book is showing up in neither of them.
I apologize for not replying sooner, holiday sales have been though the roof. It is a minor inconvenience workaround that works, but, in more testing it seems to be more than just a display bug.
Aside from this visual bug, what functionality did the old page have that you're missing in the new one?
It was laid out simply in three sections, which made it easy to see at a single glance what I had. It was easy to read with poor eyesight which I have as I'm old and need reading glasses, with the old layout and my oversized monitor I could just look at the page and see everything I owned at a glance, and more importantly could see what I did not own. The new layout has tiny hard to see wording under the books, it's sized so I have to extreme zoom out to see all the books, it doesn't include the top spot for UA. It's not seperated into the three sections based on what it is, which BTW if I could have made a suggestion was to split other publishers books into 2 sections like the offical books. The current version is reliant on a built in filter system which is already buggy and full of issues.
For instance when I open it to all, there is no seperation of book type, either I filter it to tell or read carefully which runs afowl with the visual impairment.
The one and only improvement is the book art is larger in the new method. But now I can't read the bottom text or just have the full page view organized. I do like the red purchase button over the old blue one though. But I do think that the button on the book vs the button under the book taking away from what you can read worked better for me.
Going with only a picture of the new system as I didn't think to save a picture of the old version, and wayback machine seems borked right now.
This is a Full screen 2560x1440 (16:9) portrait view. My reading monitor, as I use two Monitors.
Prior to the change, I could view all the books if I full screened the page, and it would be organized in three sections. Making it easy for me to look at the books and see what I had.
for a look at how it looks zoomed out.. note still can't see everything. Also including both monitors so you can see what I see. Note the massive monitor I use for gaming and running D&D is kind of awesome. Because it was very easy for me to see everything on that monitor although it's about 25cm from my nose..

Also, I'm being nitpicky here, but the search by title could use more work. I tossed the word "dragon" in there when "All" were showing and Fizban's Treasury of Dragons and Monstrous Compendium Vol. 2: Dragonlance Creatures were the only two that showed up.
I strongly support this!!
I've played every edition since 1980.
I’m old. 😂
I like the new library but I also am shocked that there is no "not owned" filter? Seems like a no brainer that should be there.
You want to sell the content right? so let me quickly see everything I don't own.
Especially now that the Library bug is displaying content that I actually do own as not owned.
till this is fixed its pretty frustrating.
It would also be nice to sort by "Date Released".
I came here also to say that "Wait, I own everything, why is it saying I don't?" - but that's been duly noted.
More filters would be nice, yes, as well as more options for sorting.
Thanks!
