Add the specified books to the library. Books should be an iterable of 2-tuples, each 2-tuple of the form (mi, format_map) where mi is a Metadata object and format_map is a dictionary of the form {fmt: path_or_stream}, for example: {'EPUB': '/path/to/file.epub'}.

Another example (with a [wayback link (with wayback frame)](http://web.archive.org/web/20110814075540/http://data.constantvzw.org/s-a-s/16_zummer.pdf)... [and direct pdf](http://web.archive.org/web/20110814075540id_/http://data.constantvzw.org/s-a-s/16_zummer.pdf)):
nice! the raw_url gives a direct interface free link (though the wayback interface can be handy for allowing navigating different snapshots)...
next step... Making an editable document version of ALL the data ... how manageable would/could such a document be, could/should it be broken into separate lists based on type / project ?
What can these document / list / spreadsheet forms look like in a collectively editable version? (etherpad, ethercalc, hackpad, ...) **or** is JSON the format already (with json-ld we **HAVE** the link to RDF), what does a YAML representation of the JSON look like, are there shared JSON editors ?! (or do we enter Google Wave territory here)
This is quite readable (apart from the unicode stuff --- which I'm assuming there must be a way around)... But the quantity is large, and the division between items not nice (separate streams for each would be nicer)... But it's better than a markdown table or definition list. Being able to specify an order to the fields would also be very useful for sure (or to start, alphabetizing them).
