A biographical note in ONIX should always contain the name of the person or body concerned, and it should always be presented as a piece of continuous text consisting of full sentences. Some recipients of ONIX data feeds will not accept text which has embedded URLs. A contributor website link can be sent using the <Website> composite on the next page.

The <BiographicalNote> element may carry any of the following ONIX attributes: textformat, language, transliteration, textcase.

Example	<BiographicalNote>Umberto Eco, professor of semiotics at the University of Bologna, and author of “The Name Of The Rose” and “Foucault's Pendulum”, is one of the world's bestselling novelists.</BiographicalNote>
