PhiloBiblon is the corpus of data catalogued by the PhiloBiblon Project: the romance vernacular sources of medieval and early modern Iberian culture. It is also the bio-bibliographical database management system designed to catalog the primary sources themselves, both manuscript and printed, the texts they contain, the individuals involved with the production and transmission of those sources and texts, and the libraries holding them, along with relevant secondary references and authority files for persons, places, and institutions.

Mapping a Windows-based relational database of ten tables with over 400,000 records to Wikibase (a graph database using triplestores). This entails the establishment of schemas using the OpenRefine tool in Wikibase with preliminary work using Jupyter notebooks and Python scripts for preliminary analysis of the data.
