Logic to make a collection of books and movies using external data?

I was thinking of making a website that would show information about movies and books, for that I intend to get data from apis like TMDB and OpenLibrary.

My idea is to put them together in collections, for example the Harry Potter collection will contain all the original books and films from the franchise.

The site would automatically update the data in predetermined periods.

Does anyone have any idea how I could relate this data and assemble the collections, how can I know which movies and books belong to the same franchise, have some logic that allows this process to be automatic?

Thank you in advance!

You have nothing to do; you have to compare the data yourself. And, to avoid error, you'll have to make an AI (it will not be easy). If it is a site that has users, you can depend on them to maintain a proper relationship by allowing them to select correct matches. This can feed AI with data so that it checks for errors in user matches.

Example : If there are any books referencing Harry Potter but not related to the movies, you can depend on the users. In addition, the API of both services ensure access to comments and other data . They can feed the AI too - comments have a lot of differentiation to different data.

Easy way I could not find. I did not find anything in Google for some library / lib ready for this. It was superficial search but I really did not find it.

Edited : It might be interesting to scan Wikipedia to observe the relationship of books to movies. Not as a guaranteed source but as a source to power the AI and let it decide.
