Biodiversity Literature Repository

The Biodiversity Literature Repository (BLR) is a research infrastructure (RI) comprising the BLR Community on Zenodo at the European Center for Nuclear Research (CERN), and services to search and retrieve the data (Ocellus, Zenodeo API, BLR website). BLR’s focus is on biodiversity data liberated from scholarly publications, and it uses custom metadata linking to external vocabularies covering the needs of the biodiversity community. This includes taxonomic treatment or figures as well as the deposit of the original article annotated with metadata describing the data contained in the articles itself, as well as related identifiers for figures and and treatments therein. The main data import is through TreatmentBank or via publishers such as Pensoft. With over 650,000 deposits, BLR is the single largest community in Zenodo. Its data is widely reused, for example by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF). All data in BLR is published under the CC0 Public Domain Dedication, remaining free for anyone to use, anywhere, for any purpose.

生物多样性文献仓库（Biodiversity Literature Repository, BLR）是一类研究基础设施（research infrastructure, RI），由欧洲核子研究中心（European Center for Nuclear Research, CERN）旗下Zenodo平台上的BLR社区，以及用于数据检索的服务（含Ocellus、Zenodeo应用程序接口、BLR官方网站）构成。BLR的核心聚焦于从学术出版物中析出的生物多样性数据，其采用定制化元数据，并关联覆盖生物多样性社区需求的外部受控词汇表。该仓库涵盖的内容包括分类学处理文本或插图，以及对原始文献进行元数据标注后的存档——元数据用于描述文献本身包含的数据，同时关联文献内插图与分类学处理文本的相关标识符。核心数据导入渠道包括TreatmentBank平台，以及Pensoft等学术出版社。目前BLR拥有超过65万个存档条目，是Zenodo平台上规模最大的单一社区。其数据被广泛复用，例如被全球生物多样性信息设施（Global Biodiversity Information Facility, GBIF）使用。BLR内的所有数据均采用CC0公共领域授权协议发布，任何人可在任意地点、出于任意目的免费使用。

背景概述

Biodiversity Literature Repository是一个专注于从科学出版物中解放生物多样性数据的开放存储库，由Plazi管理并托管在CERN的Zenodo平台上。该数据集包含超过200万条记录，涵盖分类处理、图表和文章元数据，并以CC0公共领域贡献许可发布，支持全球生物多样性研究的数据重用。
