This article expands on the one describing the ONIX 3.0 feed for booksellers selling to the general public. Here you will find the specific elements for products offered in libraries (the details are in bold in the Description column).
Although the information feeds attempt to reproduce as closely as possible the various constraints associated with the licensing of library offers, the information system handling the feeds must make choices about how it stores, interprets and transmits this information, depending on the parameters of its agreements with the various stakeholders in the library ecosystem. As an indication, you can consult a guide to interpreting library licences.
