Comparing book cover services
In Koha, book jackets can come from Amazon, Google Books, Syndetics, Baker & Taylor, LibraryThing or Babeltheque. In my production opac (not Koha) I'm using covers from openlibrary.org. I'd like to know experiences, opinions, comparisons, ... about these services. Thanks to everybody. Stefano -- Dott.

Stefano, I find google and amazon to display the same results, both show the image, or both don't. I guess the benefit of openlibrary.org is you can add book covers yourself. Thanks, Savitra Sirohi Nucsoft OSS Labs http://www.osslabs.biz On 8/21/09, Stefano Bargioni <bargioni@pusc.it> wrote:
