Hi @JC2022 ,

Thanks for your message, and welcome to the Community Forum. Yes, that is possible. Our REST API is the best way to retrieve these records.

You can see all the book metadata records registered using Harvard University Press’s 10.4159 DOI prefix here:
http://0-api-crossref-org.library.alliant.edu/prefixes/10.4159/works?filter=type:book&select=DOI,title,ISBN&rows=500&mailto=support@crossref.org

I have limited the metadata returned in the query to DOI, title, and ISBN, but if you want to see the complete metadata records for these books, you can simply remove the select parameter, like this:
http://0-api-crossref-org.library.alliant.edu/prefixes/10.4159/works?filter=type:book&rows=500&mailto=support@crossref.org

Please let me know if you have any additional questions,
Isaac
