The https://librarysimplified.org/rel/auth/anonymous link relation can be used as a value in the type array to indicate that it's okay to get books from this site without providing any authentication.
If https://librarysimplified.org/rel/auth/anonymous shares the type array with another authentication mechanism, it means that it's also possible to authenticate with the site, possibly getting access to additional books or features.
