Maybe because a search for "Lyngiades" in Open Library yields no hits? This leads to the impression (whether justified or not) that an OL entry is needed. >Did the >Library of Congress catalog it wrong? If their entry is correct, it >should just be a matter of importing it (or referencing it). If you follow the "Add a book" link, you are not offered an import option. How would this actually be done? More generally, I'm interested in getting bibliographic information as Linked Data, and wondering how this can be achieved, starting from where we are now. If LoC has a persistent URL for a work (which in this case they do), and if it were to be delivered as Linked Data (which it isn't, yet), then what would be the attitude to this resource from the point of view of Open Library? Would there need to be a separate OL record, and if so in what ways would it differ?
