Bibundina
Version: 0.3 (2023-11)
Bibundina is a writer's library application that provides an environment for creating and publishing an edition of a collection of books and the reading traces in them. This edition can contain not only the bibliographic details of the books, but also focus on the marginalia left by writers and include information about the provenance of the books and when they were read.

Does the tool allow you to export the results?
Partly: The database of library books is stored in an XML file which can be downloaded to be reused in different research scenarios.
How is an input document or how is the data to be structured for the tool?
The database of books takes the shape of an XML document (library.xml), with a custom schema that is documented in the documentation. Information can be inputted manually in the XML editor that comes with eXist-db (eXide), or in oXygen, or, if the user is capable, the input data can be transformed from any other database format into the XML schema and saved into library.xml.
