#BookBrainz is a online database with the aim to collect every single book, magazine, journal and other publication ever written. A open source, ethical and open data project by @metabrainz.
Services depending on MusicBrainz are back up, but MusicBrainz itself is still not fully back.
We currently anticipate an additional one-hour delay for this downtime.
MusicBrainz will be down soon, with partial functionality downtime for other *Brainz sites, at 15 UTC.
We expect to be back up by 16 UTC, with the #MusicBrainzSchemaChange completed.
