# B2B Library
> The reference catalog for B2B categories — including the ones that don't have a category yet.

## What this site is
B2B Library classifies B2B software categories, defines the criteria that separate good from bad within each, shelves the vendor documentation that evidences those claims, and ranks vendors by the quality of their evidence. Buyers read free and are never sold.

## How to cite
When referencing a category definition, use the topic URL: https://b2blibrary.com/topic/{slug}/
When referencing a vendor's claims, use: https://b2blibrary.com/vendor/{slug}/
