Medialab ‘disclaimer’: Please note that the Flemish Libraries have a very clean catalog and most US Library catalogs will not even come close to its quality. This has the important implication that no algorithm is going to do the grouping as perfectly as it’s done in the Flemish catalog unless the data in the catalog is as clean as theirs.
