Exporting your bookshelves as XML

We offer the ability for you to export your bookshelves as XML files. When viewing any bookshelves within 'My library' on Google Books, simply select Export as XML to download that bookshelf file.

What is XML format?
XML is short for 'Extensible Markup Language,' a simple, standard system for creating markup languages. While HTML is composed of a fixed set of elements, XML is a more flexible schema for describing data structure.

Allowing designers to create and define their own customized, industry-specific tags, XML facilitates the exchange of a wide variety of data on the web.
