We have noticed Zotero is saving eBooks as webpages instead of books from our catalog (https://iucat.iu.edu). Currently, code is setting all OpenURLs using DC metadata format as type webpage. This PR attempts to make exceptions to this rule for items that are in fact books.

In our case, ebooks are returning rft.format=e_book, so was added to list of exceptions.

@dstillman Could I ask for a review this PR? I notice you are the most recent committer to this repo. Our library catalog ( IU Cat ) would benefit greatly if this or a better solution was implemented for help identify ebooks as books versus websites. I'd appreciate any feedback you might provide.
