It isn't hard to create a column that contains the notes for an author. Unfortunately there is the problem that a book can have multiple authors. Which one's notes should be displayed?
If you want to try this then you would create a "Column built from other columns". The "contains html" box should be checked. This template returns the HTML note, if any, for the first author for a book.
Code:
program:
get_note('authors', list_item($authors, 0, '&'), '')
It is possible to use a loop to get the notes from all the authors, but I haven't tried it.
The performance might or might not be acceptable. The only way to know is to try it.
