[okfn-discuss] British Library data JSON wrangling

[John Levin]

Dear list,

The British Library has just launched
https://data.bl.uk/
with data sets including some 50,000 digitized books from 1510 to 1946.

Infuriatingly, there isn't a simple manifest of these books. There is an 
enormous (50mb) JSON file
https://data.bl.uk/digbks/db21.html
which I've been trying to wrangle with little success.

What's the best way of getting information out of this blob? ANy help 
for a JSON newbie?

TIA

John
