Bug Description

For some of the books RDF, there is a missing closing tag for <rdf:Description>. One example is http://openlibrary.org/books/OL9333894M.rdf
This leads to invalid XML and can not be parsed as such.

As of today, there is another type of invalid rdf. If we look at http://openlibrary.org/b/OL18594891M.rdf, the first <rdf:Description rdf:about="http://openlibrary.org/books/OL18594891M"/> is an empty tag, but we can find its closing tag at the end of the file (I guess it is since this clogin tag does not have its matching opening tag).
I believe, this tag should not be empty, but should be the second level container for book informations. Don't you think?
