Motivation[edit]

Panjab Digital Library is a valuable resource for public domain works in the Punjabi language. Many of these works lack ISBN numbers or entries in other databases as they are older print media which fall outside the purview of those identifiers. Note that these ID numbers which are passed to the formatter URL are different from the collection accession number assigned to each work. -عُثمان (talk) 18:53, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
