Book Metadata Enricher — fill gaps in your Excel book catalogs

What does the book metadata enricher do from start to finish?

You can finally fill in missing details in your Excel book catalogs—no more manual searches. The Book Metadata Enricher takes your existing file, identifies books missing a publication date or publisher place, and then finds that information using both online sources and AI. It sends back an updated Excel catalog, so you can work with complete data right away.

How does it find missing publication dates and locations?

This tool uses a unique combination of high-quality web search and artificial intelligence to track down elusive publication metadata. It matches book titles and authors with online records, then pulls out the publication date and publisher place, even if the information isn't structured in one place. You get accurate, up-to-date details added directly into your catalog—without lifting a finger.

Can it handle large Excel files automatically?

Yes, you don’t have to split files or process them in batches. Whether it’s a dozen books or several thousand, the Book Metadata Enricher takes care of all of them in the background. Batch enrichment means every row in your list is checked and updated where needed, saving hours of tedious work.

What do I need to get started?

It’s simple: just provide your Excel file with as much book information as you have—title and author are plenty to begin with. Attach your file, start the workflow, and you’ll receive the completed catalog refreshed with new publication dates and publisher places instantly.
