Our import system is badly broken. Before working on fixing that, I felt it is 
important to make all the text items on archive.org available in some form. So 
just couple of days back, I aded a new feature to OL to display every 
archive.org texts item as a book record on OL.  

You'll see URLs like http://openlibrary.org/books/ia:historyofjewelle00evan, 
which correspond to an item on archive.org. Ideally, this should have been 
imported and attached to a work, but this work-around until it is fixed.

That is surely an error. I'll forward this archive.org support team.

No, bugs for code, not for data. Best way is to report it via 
http://openlibrary.org/contact
