Bug Description
We are using:
Evergreen 2.10.5
PostgreSQL 9.4.8
Debian 8 Jessie
Open Library added content (table of contents in particular) does not provide correctly encoded data in the online catalog.
A sample Open Library table of contents with Czech characters can be found here:

We have also checked how the same record looks like in our production system (Evergreen 2.8.3) and so now we can report that it is also corrupt as you can see at:

I'm guessing that you're being sent ISO 8859-2 characters and you need to convert them to UTF-8.
Another possibility is you're being sent some other Unicode format that is being interpreted as UTF-8.
Can you verify from the vendor what character set they are sending you?
