This is the Data Store for Library Simplified. The data store contains information from a variety of sources, supporting the accurate classification and thorough metadata of book records.
The Metadata Wrangler depends on the data store for its installation.
Thorough deployment instructions, including essential libraries for Linux systems, can be found in the Library Simplified wiki. If this is your first time installing a Library Simplified repository, please review those instructions.
Should you need to work on the data store, use a traditional git workflow:
$ git clone git@github.com:NYPL-Simplified/data.git dataIf you are using the data store in conjunction with the Metadata Wrangler, be sure to include its full local path as the value of the "data_directory" property in your metadata configuration json file.
