You can do a 'batch' from the main GUI.
Select books: Ctrl-D: <choose what>: when it is done you get to choos how to apply. FWIW I prefer to review each and cherry-pick fields
Yes sorry just for context. The reason i need more metadata is that the CountPages plugin uses it to work out page numbers. And the default metadata that comes across doesn't give information that gives me meaningful page number totals. So i then have to get that extra metadata for it to work better.
