For those looking to mark up bibliographic associated resources the release

<https://schema.org/ShortStory>, and Play <https://webschemas.org/Play>.

plus a couple of useful new properties:

collectionSize <https://schema.org/collectionSize> - Added to the Collection
<https://schema.org/Collection> type  to indicate the number of items in
the collection.
materialExtent <https://schema.org/materialExtent> - Added to the
CreativeWork <https://schema.org/CreativeWork> type (and therefore its
subtypes). 'The quantity of the materials being described or an expression
of the physical space they occupy.'  This can be defined as either a simple
string or a detailed quantified value and measurement type using the
QuantitativeValue <https://schema.org/QuantitativeValue> type.


For those that have been looking to markup archives and there contents, you
shoud be pleased to see these new terms: ArchiveOrganization
