Overview

Looks for cover images from OpenLibrary Cover API. Lookig up covers in OL can require multiple HTTP requests, one for each identifier, which can sometimes lead to slowness. OL also doesn't have great cover image coverage. So if you have access to Amazon or Google covers, you probably don't need this service.
