FAQs

What kind of metadata can be extracted from library cards?

The tool is designed to extract key bibliographic details from library catalog card images. This typically includes information such as the title of the work, the author's name, and the publication date, all presented in a structured JSON format for easy use.

Is there a limit to the number of library card images I can upload?

As a free tool hosted on Hugging Face Spaces, usage might be subject to platform-specific resource limits or fair-use policies. While there isn't an explicit stated limit, very high volume usage might experience slower processing or temporary unavailability due to inactivity.

Can this tool process handwritten library cards?

The effectiveness of the metadata extraction largely depends on the clarity and legibility of the text on the library card image. While AI can handle some variations, heavily handwritten or poorly scanned cards might result in less accurate or incomplete data extraction.
