Bug Description

Search query syntax exposed in Open Library is controlled by the field names in the solr schema, whcih are chosen just for development convenience.

I think the query syntax should be defined explicitly and documented instead of it being a side-product of solr schema.

Here is my proposal for query syntax:

Be good to make sure this is documented in the Developers area too.
