Output to BDS #100

Closed rupertgatti closed 9 months ago

Recommendation 36. As the main supplier of data to the British Library CIP programme and to UK academic libraries, COPIM should liaise with BDS in order to understand workflows and business models. BDS is a UK metadata provider . Metadata may be sent via ONIX feeds or an online form. BDS emphasise the importance of quality metadata from publishers. BDS send metadata to library retailers free of charge to publishers. However, they charge for a feed of the metadata back to publisher online catalogues etc. BDS also supplies records to the British Library and library suppliers, such as Dawson and Coutts in the UK. Many UK libraries will purchase MARC records from BDS at the same time as acquiring shelf ready print or e-book stock via library suppliers. https://www.bdslive.com/

Presumably this is complete, as BDS Live have confirmed that the Thoth JSTOR ONIX output is acceptable to them (#401)
