This document is a complement to the document describing the Onix 3.0 feed for book retailers selling to the general public. Here you’ll find the elements specific to the products offered in libraries (specificities are written in bold in the “Description” column).
Even though the information feed tends to reproduce the various constraints associated with licensing library products as faithfully as possible, the information system that received the feeds must make a choice about the way it will store, interpret and transmit this information according to the settings of its agreements with the various entities of the library ecosystem. For information you can consult a guide for interpreting library licenses.
