The European Library
Central index of 119m bibliographic records
Remote access to a further c.80m
Currently using this data limited to catalogue search
and API

But what if TEL offered a dataset there was open for any type of re-use, even if
that use was
•commercial•not requiring attribution
•open to being remixed

=> Creating a Creative Commons 0 datasetfrom metadata aggregated by TEL

What can be achieved ?
![Page 12: Open Data from the European Library](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062617/54c670e94a7959e37d8b45ba/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Delivering datasets of commercial search
providers, helping drive traffic back to libraries
![Page 13: Open Data from the European Library](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062617/54c670e94a7959e37d8b45ba/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Allows research projects to create subsets of data
specific to their topic(e.g. Cendari project on
WW1 and medieval resources)
![Page 14: Open Data from the European Library](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062617/54c670e94a7959e37d8b45ba/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Allow other developers to enrich the data, helping with
semantic interpretation, entity recognition (people,
places), clustering of similar or identical records
![Page 15: Open Data from the European Library](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062617/54c670e94a7959e37d8b45ba/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Visualising bibliographic records according to place
and time of publication
![Page 16: Open Data from the European Library](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062617/54c670e94a7959e37d8b45ba/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Creating Linked Open Data that allows creates
relationships between library metadata and other
datasets … which can enrich others’ datasets in turn
![Page 17: Open Data from the European Library](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062617/54c670e94a7959e37d8b45ba/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Initial request for responses went out to member libraries in Summer
2013.
TEL now working with libraries on issues
Aim to have dataset released by end of year
