You can include/exclude more than one book, just separate them with with a semi-colon. For example, entering exodus;revelation;matthew will include/exclude the books of Exodus, Revelation, and Matthew.
A mix of upper and lower case characters is allowed. For example eXODUs or ExODus is the same as entering Exodus. You do not have to worry about spaces (or lack thereof) between the various books. But you have to remember to use the semi-colon. For example, these are valid book entries: "Exodus", "E xodu s", "Exodus;Revelation;Matthew", and "Exo dus ;Rev el ation Mat thew"
