On the other hand, there's the Open Library Covers API: http://openlibrary.org/dev/docs/api/covers ...which appears to work much like Amazon covers in that there's a defined URL for each cover image in each size available: http://covers.openlibrary.org/b/oclc/28419896-S.jpg http://covers.openlibrary.org/b/oclc/28419896-M.jpg http://covers.openlibrary.org/b/oclc/28419896-L.jpg I'd be interested in hearing about why it was decided not to use the latter to pull covers. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.

Each link will be in the following format: { "url": "http://...", "title": "..." } cover URLs to small, medium and large covers. { "small": "http://covers.openlibrary.org/b/id/1-S.jpg", "medium": "http://covers.openlibrary.org/b/id/1-M.jpg", "large": "http://covers.openlibrary.org/b/id/1-L.jpg", } The book api provides a lot of info. And I did try the medium ones, but they were too big. I then checked with OpenLibrary to make sure there would be no issue in terms of license with us fetching the medium ones and scaling them via html. But I havent had a chance to do that -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.

The medium ones are too big for the results page, but would be just right for the detail page. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.

Theres a bunch more info we get from the book api, we could show more of that on the detail page too :) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA Contact for the bug.
