In case you haven't seen it, there's the start of a list at:
   http://ckan.net/group/bibliographic

I know of numerous files that aren't yet listed there, and I will try  
to find some time this weekend to add them in, especially those in the  
Internet Archive. I believe that anyone can edit with an OpenID, so  
please add to the list if you can.
