As part of the transition away from the Smithsonian, the BHL servers have now been physically moved from the Smithsonian to the Field Museum. For more information on this move see the BHL blog.
Quarterly BHL Identifiers needing review
The quarterly BHL Identifiers needing review report has recently been released. It contains possible issues and errors both in Wikidata and in the BHL catalogue including BHL Authors having more than one Wikidata identifier in the BHL catalogue, Wikidata identifier associated with more than one BHL author, Wikidata identifier in BHL but corresponding BHL Author ID not in Wikidata, BHL Title has more than one Wikidata identifier and Wikidata identifier associated with more than one BHL title.
Both Wikidata editors and BHL affiliated cataloguers are working through these issues but please feel free to lend a hand! This will be a work in progress.
