The notes field makes sense, because as I'm looking through the
various strings appended to titles, they seem to me to have varying
degrees of granularity.  For example, Tor Books as an imprint of
Macmillan.  There aren't any books in OL with (Tor Books) hanging off
the title, but there are ones with (Tor Fantasy) and (Tor Science
Fiction).   Even if we had a separate imprint field, I don't know if
Tor Fantasy or Tor Science Fiction belong there.  Edition note seems
to be about all I can figure out what to do with it.
