viafr: R Interface to the VIAF (Virtual International Authority File) API

Authors/Creators

  • 1. Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München

Description

This R package uses the VIAF (Virtual International Authority File) API. VIAF is an OCLC service that combines multiple LAM (Library, Archive, and Museum) name authority files into a single name authority service. It thus provides direct access to linked names for the same entity across the world's major name authority files, including national and regional variations in language, character set, and spelling. For more information go to https://viaf.org/.
