CIFLIB is a class library that was developed by the Nucleic Acid Database Project (NDB) to provide an application program interface (API) to Macromolecular CIF data. CIFLIB is designed to completely encapsulate all I/O operations and integrity checking on CIF dictionaries and data files from a calling application.

CIFLIB was formerly called SIFLIB.
