The law on citizens' electronic access to public services, passed in Spain in 2007, included among its reforms the obligation to publish in electronic format several official gazettes such as BOE and BORME.

This law specified that the date from which the gazettes would be published in electronic format would be from 2009, so that all previous official gazettes are only available on paper at the headquarters of the Agencia Estatal Boletín Oficial del Estado.

For this reason, the information on Librebor.me is not complete: there are companies whose officers we do not know, we know the dissolution date of companies but we do not know their incorporation date, and there is no trace of companies that have not filed any mercantile act since 2009 until now.

The LibreBOR project was created to remind us that the data collected in the Spanish Commercial Registry has been processed and managed by public officials, funded with citizens' taxes, and to claim that these data belong to us and that in the 21st century they should be accessible through the Internet.
