No. It depends on whether or not the scanned book was
paperback or hardbound and whether or not it had a
book jacket. Most of the older books have lost theirs.
Also, the jackets don't usually scan well because of
fonts used and colors, so many of us type the info in;
others don't bother because it's not required. smile
