[Feature Request] Media types (audiobook, ebook, etc.)

[codebude]

Quoted from @DawidGardzinski in the original issue Feedback after 1-2 weeks of using Libris (#78).

Books aren't limited to physical copies anymore, so when creating a collection, it would be nice to be able to select the medium.

"Digital access" isn't quite the same thing, since that term can cover multiple interpretations, such as borrowing a book.

That's a good idea. We can happily add such an attribute. Proposal:

• Name/Title: Medium
• Default value: Print
• Required: Yes
• Values to choose from: Print, eBook, Audiobook, Magazine

Does that work for you? Please give your feedback before we implement something here.

@DawidGardzinski Just adding you here so you see my reply – looking forward to your take on this.

I’m not sure whether this should be required, because for a status like “need to be acquired,” we don’t really know at this stage what type we’ll have.

[codebude]

Fair point. Then I'll make it optional.
