I'm still a bit confused/miffed about the fact that Internet Archive has MANY texts which are not included in "Open Library". Like all of Project Gutenberg. So using the OL API's, you miss all that stuff. Which is why I've been resisting switching to the OL API's. (I originally wrote my Umlaut code before OL existed, using some hacky Internet Archive API (or rather Atom results from a URL template) instead). However, with the recent additions to the OL API's, they are SO much better then what I'm using, that at some point I'll switch, despite the fact that it means searching a smaller corpus. I'm still a bit confused about what IA wants to be the relationship between Open Library and the rest of content hosted on Internet Archive, which includes some bibliographic content not included in OL. If anyone from IA can explain, it would be helpful. Jonathan
