Series IDs

[bicolino34]

Since basic functionalities for series might soon be implemented, I think, we should discuss whether series IDs should be included in our metadata and which ones specifically.

Here are some IDs that we have, that can also be used for series:

• ISBNs
  Often book series have ISBNs for themselves. In such case, book has two ISBNs printed out: one for the series and the other one for the specific volume

• Wikisource
  They have pages for multiple volume works and periodicals like newspaper. See page for The New York Times https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_New_York_Times

• Goodreads

Wikidata also has an ID for series: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q15228

Some more Series identifiers:

• BookBrainz
• MusicBrainz
• VIAF (e.g., https://viaf.org/viaf/32162720964061090600/)
• LibraryThing (e.g., https://www.librarything.com/nseries/82708/Emergent-Strategy)
• StoryGraph (e.g., https://app.thestorygraph.com/series/908868)
• Google Play (e.g., https://play.google.com/store/books/series?id=NUH3GgAAABDDWM)
