What does "Bestelbaar" mean, in the context of a bibliographic record?

"Available on order" (i.e. "niet bestelbaar" would mean "out of print")

Are there one or two people who'd be willing to test out the new Dutch data on a beta basis? It's not ready for prime time, but it's ready for testing--or almost so. Anyone interested?

OK - I've got a few Dutch items I could test it on.

I'm interested as well to testing the data out :-)

"Bestelbaar" in the context of a bibliographic record means "Available on order" (which is NOT the same as "In print"); here the onix standard (see www.editeur.nl) can help. Every book in the world is 'bestelbaar', even Gutenbergs Bible, but it might be expensive.

And yes, I would like to help testing the new Dutch data on a beta basis - if still relevant.

Hey, the data is out now. It's on the site—Bruna, Bold, KB, KBR and the state museum research library.

Off to order a Guttenberg Bible.
