Overview

The Library Communications Framework (LCF) is a set of library interoperability standards which defines a framework for the communication of data between self-service and other library terminal applications to and from library management systems.

This LCF standard is recommended by BIC as the best way to implement communications between systems within a library, for example between a Library Management System (LMS/ILS) and an RFID Self-Service Solution.

The documentation for LCF can be found on the BIC web site.

This site provides a test implementation of the LCF protocol web services.

Source code for this implementation can be found at https://github.com/ceridwen-com/lcfserver/
