Mvolz added a comment. I'd be willing to mentor on this one. Keep in mind that the IEG/IdeaLab grants are *much* larger in scope than what we'd do for outreachy- I'd suggest taking the bit about inserting books/references into wikidata programmatically as the core of an outreachy project. That alone could definitely could keep someone occupied for 3 months (or longer!). Microtask sounds fine.
For another mentor (provided no one else here responds) looking for someone with wikidata expertise would be ideal as I have no experience there. There's a wikidata mailing list- https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata I would suggest fleshing out your proposal first though before looking for mentors besides those cc-ed here, so potential mentors have a better idea of what you want to do.
