Just had a NIP idea that would go hard with noornote as its first implementation.

NIP: Book Reference

Specifies a markdown format that is human readable in plaintext, but in supported clients, will fetch the referenced passage from your library relay.

New kind: Subdivided Book

author: string of author name

title: string of book title

content: a single or multidimensional array of strings, making up the entirety of the book.

original language: ISO 639 code string of the original language of the book

translated language: ISO 639 code string of the language of the content of this note, leave empty if this is in the original language

If you like the idea, I'd be happy to write a full spec and even help with the coding to implement it. The potential is great for UX. When someone quotes something, you can be sure that they didn't change the quote, since it came from your own choice of library relay. Also, it would start the uploading of books to Nostr which would open the way to implement ereader clients and bring a whole new set of people.
