Data Services

The British Library makes its data available in a number of ways:

• Free access to MARC records via Z39.50 for non-commercial use - this is an ideal option for libraries wishing to download records into their own local library systems.
  
  
• Free access to datasets in a variety of formats - for example, RDF-DC or linked data.
  
  
• Priced services designed to complement and enrich commercial services. For further information please contact dave.wilkie@bl.uk
