Hi All,
Current bibliometrics project is in a humanities/social sciences area (not typically my specialty). I'm looking for book descriptions for maybe ~1000 books. Even if I could automate filling in a few more of these, I would be happy. I could scrape a catalog page, but that might be frowned upon. I could also download the free MARC files from LoC, but that's way too much.  We (JHA) don't maintain a cataloging subscription to WorldCat (JHE - our parent org, I'm sure must). OpenLibrary appears to not have descriptions.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Christina
