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.
