Biblissima Authority File

This website is currently in test phase. Thank you for your understanding.

In its initial version published in March 2019, this platform only contains the persons authority file, representing a total of approximately 26,500 entities.

For any request, you can contact us at team@biblissima-condorcet.fr

This platform provides Biblissima's authority file in the form of structured data. Its realization is part of the Biblissima programme, the observatory of the written heritage of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance from the 8th to the 18th century.

These authority files are based on data collected and processed within the framework of the Biblissima programme.
They form the backbone of the Biblissima portal' and the prototype IIIF Collections of Manuscripts and Rare Books.
They have been set up in order to identify, disambiguate, harmonize and align named entities from a wide range of data sources (digital libraries, catalogues and specialized databases on manuscripts and early printed books). This effort has been ongoing since the beginning of Biblissima in 2013.

Data access, API

The publication of Biblissima authority files is part of a process of opening up the data and making it reusable. Thus this platform provides authority data in a structured form and makes it accessible by computer programs through web services (Web API):

In addition, each entity is identified in the Web of Linked Data by a URI built on the following pattern: https://data.biblissima.fr/entity/Q{n}. The raw data of an entity is accessible at this URI through content negotiation (in JSON format, and in different RDF serializations: RDF/XML, N-Triples, Turtle, N3).
