Perhaps the list could recognize it as a convention to identify any book
about which one is making an inquiry: at least
author/title/imprint/date--even url(s) for digital reproduction(s) that one
has already found.

I've often had to respond with the same request that Anja made. The
information may or may not matter in the end, but it anchors the question
to some real thing, which catalogers do rather like to do.
