Apple Paperbacks is, I believe, an imprint of Scholastic (more info on imprints
here). When I come across these, I put "An Apple Paperback" in the notes
field, since the imprint is not properly a series (like "Harry Potter #4", for
example). I think OL should have a separate field for publisher's imprints,
since it is not otherwise clear where this info should go. Although it's not
clear to me how this information would be useful to anyone? Anyway, I put it
in the notes field.
I never add the format from an error elsewhere in the record. However, Amazon
almost always lists the format, so you can check there. In this case, I would
feel confident adding "Paperback" to the format field since Scholastic does not
publish Apple Paperback books in hardcover editions. I don't think "unknown"
in the format field is useful information; wherever I am not sure what the
correct data is I leave it blank, and if a record lists "unknown" in the format
field I remove the data.
