No, if books were concerned lots of people from the "outside world"
turned to the libraries for meta data, only to be told that this isn't
something the library world has in place. I was in the room when it

And to further this, people actually expected us to have some kind of
opinionated meta data about the books as well! Hahaha! What a laugh!
Opinions!
