Social tagging might be one way to get around the genre issue (similar to the way it works in LibraryThing, which lets users browse by tags like “Chick lit” or “Dystopia” as well as by LC subject headings). Have you heard about the University of Pennsylvania’s PennTags project where they let their patrons add tags to records? Of course, the problem with tagging is that not everything gets tagged if you’re relying on your users to do it. So I think the approach would have to be a little different.
