I imported 12 photos into a new collection. I went from Library over to the book module as I want to start a book with these photos. Inside the book module were a bunch of photos that were not among the 12 I created in the new collection. Why are they there? Shouldn't going from the Library to the book module when you're inside a collection only result in those photos in the collection showing up?

This is a known annoyance! And yet just testing now, it only happened for me once! when I first clicked the Module Menu. After that, the Book only ever included selected photos.

"Try this. Go to the Book module and press 'Clear Book'. Switch back to the Library module, select your collection and go to the Book module again."

Good to know, thank you. I closed out of Lightroom last night and this morning when I opened up the book module the correct photos were appearing. Thanks again.
