Bibliothèque Sociologique Internationale (BSI) ("International Sociological Library") is a significant scholarly book series that was founded and edited at the end of the 19th century by the French sociologist René Worms (1869–1926). It was published by the Paris-based publishing house V. Giard & E. Brière. Up to his death in 1926, nearly 70 works appeared in two sub-series, making this collection one of the most dynamic, but also one of the most long-lasting, within the social-scientific publishing landscape that emerged around the turn of the century.
