Dataset description

Information regarding active loans in the public libraries of the city of Madrid, that is, copies that are currently borrowed, or have been borrowed in the month indicated. Attention, the information provided is updated monthly, so it is likely that this volume has already been returned. This data set is provided for statistical purposes or for studies and research, not to give real-time information on loans. For a specific consultation, it is better to use the collective catalog of the Community of Madrid, where there is an online consultation to check the situation of a certain fund. In the section “Other sites of interest”, you have a link to the online catalog. The first field of the active loan file corresponds to its barcode. With this code, you can obtain all the associated information in another set of data that is the Catalogue of public libraries of Madrid, also available in the portal. On the right side of this screen, you can find the “Active Loan File Structure”, which contains the information needed to interpret this dataset. Also included are auxiliary tables for encoding media, libraries, copies, readers, etc. for correct decoding. Important: Here are the copies that have been borrowed in the month indicated below.
