We imported ~1.7M book records into typesense for our project... unfortunately, the data was from OpenLibrary and book data is notoriously messy and inconsistent. Any recommendations on a clean data source for books? Primarily looking for children's books through YA and novels. Thanks in advance!

I know this is not what you were asking for, but in case you haven't seen this before, we have a demo that uses OpenLibrary data: https://books-search.typesense.org You'll see the source code linked under the title, and the scripts/indexer directory has code that shows how we parsed this dataset before pushing it into Typesense

that's awesome! how frequently do you update the data from OL? or is it live?

That's a static snapshot from 2021 IIRC
