I've added pretty extensive schema.org at a couple of the libraries I've been at. I prefer to use JSON-LD. It was mainly for events, institutional info and people. I was looking at doing the same for books in the catalog at the TMC Library before I left. I doubt much of it is still in place; the website for Bird Library at OU has gone through a number of iterations since I left, although I see the technology manager has got some dublin core in place. I had very extensive markup injected into the TMC Library's website, however the library director and the development officer had some rather strident objections to things that potentially included the markup, so I removed it.
