Smile Catalog Help

I have an 800+ library that I want to have represented in a catalog.

Can anyone tell me a workaround for getting the page number, Gunning fog rating, and the GoodReads Average User Rating and Review Number in it?

I have columns that are already filled, so I am figuring that they need to be snuck into the tags column.

What I do not want to do is spend an eternity hand editing the metadata. I also would prefer to not see all that info dumped into the tags browser, BUT I would be ok if I had the info in nested form (page.###)(Avg.rating.#.##)(gf.#.##)(Reviews.###,# ##)

I used the page/word/GF plugin to get that data, and I imported my GR list to get the Average User Rating (although, I think I would rather have the total number of ratings since this would be a better indication of a book's popularity), this requires viewing the linked book but I can live with that.

So, specifically I am asking for some help getting the individual book data in pages, work, average rating, gunning fog, and total reviews into the catalog in such a way that when I look at the book description I can view it.

I am also asking how I can populate this information from currently filled columns.

Any suggestions?
