I tried a long text column but anything I put in there merely merges into the current Comments column. I tried a regular text column but, after inserting and clicking the link, it only serves as filter to show other books with that same link, which is, of course, only that one book.
@Iouanalao - I solve the problem of my Notes "flowing into" Comments by pasting a snippet containing a 'header' and 'footer' from my global snippets library into new Notes, I write and paste between the 'header' the 'footer' viz:

Here's the snippet

Code:
<div><div>   <div><b>Notes</b></div><div><b><br></b></div><div><br></div><div><b><br></b></div><div><b><br></b></div><div><b><br></b></div><div><br></div><div><u><b>===========================================================</b></u></div></div><div>    </div><div>    </div></div>
I use Bulk Metadata edit Search and Replace to prepend the "Comments" on the Comments column, if its not already there -- or if its only a couple of books I just type it in
