Description
openlibrary.org has data sets on authors and the books that they've published, including blurb, from bookbrainz, wikipedia, library of congress and other sources. Run by archive.org and is under a "licenses are complex, but do what you like" license.
The database dumps are enormous, but we can filter by authors that have a bio and books that have a description, then create prose datasets based on the two in markdown format
- author bio and list of books. (plus supporting links in the metadata?)
- book author name, title, and description (and links to amazon IDs, wikipedia pages, library of congress reference and so on)
