Hello Chris,
You can select volumes from many pages. Also filters, sorting and
pagination works with selected volumes the same well as without any
selection. At the bottom of the table you can see how many volumes is
selected and there you can also find tips about possible selection ways
(with CTRL and with SHIFT).
Best regards,
Marcin Haba (gani)
