Thanks, Eric (and all!) - by non-book you mean other formats (films, music, etc.?) OL doesn't have records for those (yet). There is an author record, but I'm not sure how it might be used (it doesn't have a link to LCNA). I supposed a COinS with the author name and dates would be of some use... ? If anyone is interested, the list of elements are at: http://openlibrary.org/type Each "type" could have its own COinS if it makes sense. kc Eric Hellman wrote: > Not just the book pages, I might add!
