Forming URLs to Cover Image Graphics

The following items are key pieces of an absolute URL to a coverimage graphic file for an asset

The root prefix of the URL is always returned in the bookscoverimageurl attribute in any search function call, for example, Federated, Detailed, Related, Paginate.

The cover image filename itself is returned in the coverimage tag contained in the associated asset tag returned by any search function.

The absolute URL to a given cover image can be formed with the following formula:

bookscoverimageurl + coverimage

These URLs should never be hard-coded or fixed in the vendor-application.

Note: Cover image URLs are unique to each asset that specifies this tag. The vendor-application should accommodate being able to manage new assets in this context as well.

Typically only Book assets have a cover image URL but this should not be assumed by the vendor-application.
