Description

The [Deutsche Nationalbibliothek](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_National_Library) (DNB) offers its catalogue data under [CC0](https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/). See: [Datendienst "Bibliografische Dienstleistungen"](https://www.dnb.de/DE/Service/DigitaleDienste/Datendienst/datendienst_node.html) (in german)

1. The missing books could be imported into OL.
1. The books in OL that also are in DNB could get a DNB identifier if that is missing in OL. Also DDC.
1. Missing covers could also be imported. In most cases they have a better quality than the covers from Amazon. (see: [issue 28](https://github.com/internetarchive/openlibrary-bots/issues/28))
