Out of interest, how often do you find issues looking for books on OpenLibrary?

I gave up on using any site for tracking books, they all either have partial functionality or limited database. These days, I just use SQLite database with a custom Python scraper that I turned into a basic website that offers everything I need.

But last time I checked Openreads, it missed 9 out of 10 books. That’s 10% success rate.
