Bibliographic records of collections of English-language literature from the Heritage Base

This dataset consists of extracting bibliographic records from the Base patrimoine du catalogue collective de France (CCFr). It was produced on the occasion of the study day “Naissance et essor du roman anglophone en France” on 11 April 2019. It is dedicated to the study of English-speaking collections and collections, which may be of interest to research and conserved by CCFr’s partner municipal libraries. ### Dataset content This game consists of 16 files of bibliographic records corresponding to a selection linked to an author, a provenance or more broadly to the English works present in a particular collection, that is, collected initially by a collector. The dataset of the Dijon library, dedicated to rare editions of or parodiant Laurence Sterne, is accompanied by the photographic file of the copies. The content of each of the files is given more precisely in the “Dataset Presentation” document. ### Production context This game has been extracted from the heritage base of the collective catalogue of France (CCFr), whose purpose is to report works preserved by municipal libraries in old, local, thematic and/or bequeathed collections by individuals. The complete database is searchable online on the CCFr via a specific search interface. The dataset does not take into account the 1000 record limit set for the results lists. ### Dataset format The dataset is delivered in the form of: — A raw unimarc export containing all the information and codes of the source data (including fund codes and libraries). The mrk format, which can open with MarcEdit software or word processor, was preferred over the ISO2709 exchange format. — A simplified export under Excel spreadsheet, containing the main information useful for the identification of the edition and the location of the copy. ### API and related datasets This dataset is an extraction made from the data of the Heritage Base also made available on this site. It is related to the Library Description Sheets (CCFr Directory) and Fund Description Sheets (CCFr Directory), which provide a detailed description of the institutions and holdings referred to in the bibliographic data. ### To learn more on the Heritage Base: [https://www.bnf.fr/fr/la-base-patrimoine](https://www.bnf.fr/fr/la-base-patrimoine) on the UNIMARC format: [https://www.transition-bibliographique.fr/systemes-et-donnees/manuel-unimarc-format-bibliographique/](https://www.transition-bibliographique.fr/systemes-et-donnees/manuel-unimarc-format-bibliographique/) on CPR Nos: [http://documentation.abes.fr/sudoc/manuels/administration/gestion_bibliotheques/index.html#IlnRcr](http://documentation.abes.fr/sudoc/manuels/administration/gestion_bibliotheques/index.html#IlnRcr) on MarcEdit: [https://marcedit.reeset.net/](https://marcedit.reeset.net/)
