-Use a books ISBN to acquire metadata
-Find books with specified metadata (eg. tags, author, publisher, etc.) missing
-Take what metadata you currently have to find your missing metadata

I guess one of the key things I'm wondering is what is one of the best/accurate ways to find/get missing metadata?
Well, the 'Find Duplicates' plugin does what it says on the tin.

The rest Calibre itself already does. It uses the ISBN to find metadata, if your book has one. The 'Extract ISBN' plugin will dig through the book to find an ISBN in it if it does not.
