Chris:

A better long-term solution might be to write a new added content driver that serves locally managed content (primarily, I would wager, cover art). Take a look at http://svn.open-ils.org/trac/ILS/browser/trunk/Open-ILS/src/perlmods/OpenILS/WWW/AddedContent/ to see the current added content drivers.

Is there some way to import these into Evergreen so they show up next to the
book listings?

Chris, there's no manual way of associating an on-hand image with a
given bib record currently (*).  Evergreen has an "added content"
service that can communicate with 3rd party sources like Amazon,
OpenLibrary, Syndetics, and Content Cafe, which take the ISBN for a
title and return an image based on that.

* It may be possible to manually insert images into whatever setup
mod_cache and Apache uses, but it'd be a kludge and probably not fun
to maintain.
