Sample Publisher Letter

Hi,

I'm a volunteer for the Open Library project, a new site that will be a public
book cataloging and information project, and we're interested in including
data from your company.

Open Library aims to have a page for every book ever
published containing whatever information we can compile for that work -
bibliographics, cover image, description, etc. We will not be selling
books ourselves, but links to retailers will be part of the design. Open Library
is working with several other organizations, including the Internet Archive
and public and academic libraries, on this project, and we've already got
approximately 8 million records from other publishers.

We'd like to arrange to get an ONIX or other data feed from you so that we
can provide our patrons with up-to-date information about the books you publish.

Let me know if you need any other information about our project, and I
look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks for your time,

Your Name
