During bulk uploads of Metadata, I'm finding that the information for book description, tags, rating, series are being filled in only about 20% of the time. (Actually, series is not ever being filled in as far as I can see.)

In fields to be downloaded, I do have the proper fields checked.
Sources selected are Amazon, Big Book Search, FictionDB, Google, Open Library

Any suggestions?

I used Calibre for a few years and then let it fall by the wayside for the last year, so I'm a bit rusty. I've imported several hundred books in the past few days, catching up on my library. In fact I accidentally duplicated 50+ and the earlier instance of each was fully fleshed out with all fields in most cases. And I definitely didn't manually input all that detail.
