IIRC bookwyrm lets you search openlibrary for books if they're not known by your server or some well-known instances like bookwyrm.social
Like that's my point, why not just use Open library at that state?
Mostly for the federated bits I assume. Being able to follow people's bookwyrm accounts from your other socials is an interesting idea, though I don't know how often it actually happens in practice. If that stuff doesn't interest you then yeah just use OL directly ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thanks, I was wondering if there was any feature/index issues. Since there doesn't seem to be any, I will use OL. Appreciate the reply.

Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".
