Jonathan Lin | 6 comments Hello there! I'm fairly new to goodreads, but I'm excited about all the interesting nooks and crannies tucked into the api.

I was wondering if there was any support for ONIX import or export of book metadata.

ONIX is an xml based metadata interchange format used by bookstores and publishers to represent the different pieces of info about a particular book.

If there was ONIX import support, for example, goodreads can pull new books directly from publishers' feeds.

Michael Economy (michaeleconomy) We don't have onix support. We import from amazon and barnes and noble only.
