The only option available at the moment is to use the Batch Import feature, place your files in folders named after the metadata, and enable the option on the batch import screen to populate metadata from directories. Then you can have as many fields filled in as you want, but it will probably take a little bit of time to put all of the files in the folders before batch importing.

I do have plans to address this, including supporting an option to import multiple pdfs through one csv, and an option to import a CSV just to update metadata for existing songs in the library.

Thanks Mike, I think that sounds great although I'm only understanding some of what you said (sry there, new user!).  So by "metadata" does that mean each of the fields in the Edit Song page?  So I would put the PDFs in a folder called "collections" for example and then note the collection for the title say "Killer Joe" and I could also include the key, year, composer, as these would all be the same (I don't see one for Arranger?  We have multiple songs that have different arrangements).  

Then make another folder with the collections for "Alto Sax 1" and put all the alto sax parts in that one.  When I batch import these, would I leave "avoid duplicate songs" clicked and insert the new collection information without removing the Killer Joe tag?

I like the idea of being able to download the whole thing and just put the information in a spreadsheet with the data indicated in each column.  Then upload to MS.  Right now, I'm editing each PDF individually.  Many many pages!  lol

Thanks for you help!  - Ginny
