Organisation

Scope

The Integrated Authority File (GND) is a service facilitating the collaborative use and administration of authority data. These authority data represent and describe entities, i.e. persons, corporate bodies, conferences and events, geographic entities, topics and works relating to cultural and academic collections. Libraries in particular use the GND to catalogue publications. However, archives, museums, cultural and academic institutions, and researchers involved in research projects are also increasingly working with the GND. Authority data make cataloguing easier, offer definitive search entries and forge links between different information resources.

Every entity in the GND features a unique and stable identifier (GND ID). This makes it possible to link the authority data with both each other and external data sets and web resources. This results in a cross-organisational, machine-readable data network.

Technical checks

Confirm each of the following by checking the box. If the last two points cannot be confirmed, it is highly unlikely that the logo will be added to Academicons.

  • The organisation is using a logo/icon of appropriate dimensions (roughly square).
  • The icon can be reduced to monochrome.
  • A vector file (e.g. SVG, EPS, AI) or a PDF with the vector file embedded can be provided or linked to.
