It is somewhat simpler to find tiddlers via their tags than via their
fields, so that's probably a simple guide.
There are different approaches to tagging. They can be used for
categorizing things but they can also be used for arbitrary labeling. But a
lot of arbirary labels would "pollute" the tiddlers since tags are visible.
If a "value" (i.e a tag or a custom field value) is something that occurs
in many tiddlers, it should perhaps be a tag. I agree publish dates sound
like typical field values and authors, if they are important to you, would
make sense as tags especially if you wish to group your books by author.
Note that you can make field values visible by transcluding them, e.g by
typing {{!!publish-date}} and it'll show in the text area.
