It gets its metadata in different ways. the strange thing about this
example however, is that in the metadata of this specific book at Google

So the other question is whether metadata gets updated at Google. I have

bibliographic data that they don't realize that the records get updated

Google gets

spyware activity. I am now proxying Google for the JSON call, so it will

Translator. It helps for the moment. Now I wonder if our own calls will

Wait, now ALL of your clients calls are coming from one single IP?

I don't know what Peter's exact implementation is, but they might relax

I don't think I do anything sophisticated like X-forwarder-for. I just have a
ProxyPass directive in the apache configuration teeling it to reverse proxy a
directory to google

You can send a response to them here:

The form seems to be for librarians so maybe they'll understand the
issue and talk to people who may be able to make a
I'd be very surprised if Google _automatically_ took any notice of
anything in an HTTP header to relax protection against what they
consider harvesting of data because all HTTP headers can be set to
anything: that is, if I wanted to suck Google dry of bib data, I
could simply pretend to be
This is a little off-topic, but does anyone know if journal covers are
available anywhere, similar to books covers that are provided by Google

We use this from Bowker:
http://images.bowker.com/cgi-bin/ulr_cover.pl?issn=03468755
it will return transparent one pixel image (as amazon does) when no picture is
