Thanks everyone for your help! I've actually gotten surprisingly far given the fact that this morning I knew absolutely nothing about python. Beautiful soup has made it really easy, but now that I've gotten as far as writing the data to the file, I ran into a little bit of an issue...When I tried to write the author to the file using epub-meta, the result was "Author: Lackey & Mercedes". I was completely confused as to how this was happening until I tried to do it manually and realized it does the same thing. Apparently it takes the input "Lackey, Mercedes" as specifying two different authors. Is there any way to change this, or should i take each author in the format "lastname, firstname" and convert it to "firstname lastname" before writing the metadata?
