Comment 10 for bug 183052

Could we reliably figure out Crown Copyright by searching the data for
"publisher:(queen printer)"? That only turns up 29 items right now, all
of which are under Crown Copyright, but this is still the sample data,
right?

In fact, could we do that query on the data before it's used as the
database for the site, and use the output of that query to add a Crown
Copyright data field?
