We welcome the use of our data and collections in Wikimedia projects. For example: BHL’s collections can be used as references for Wikipedia articles. BHL metadata (e.g. authors, scientific names, bibliographic references, etc.) can be used in Wikidata and BHL images can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons.
A majority of BHL collections are public domain and sub-set of in-copyright and protected works are available under Creative Commons BY-NC-SA licenses. Please note that Wikimedia does not accept BY-NC-SA licenses so not all BHL content is eligible or will appear in the Wikimedia ecosystem. However, all BHL metadata is available for public use under the CC0 1.0 Universal (CC0 1.0) Public Domain Dedication license.
