We investigate the big-bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) in a Brans-Dicke model with a varying {lambda} term. We find that the cosmic expansion rate differs appreciably from that of the Friedmann model during the BBN epoch . The produced abundances of 4He, D, and 7Li are consistent with both the observed ones and the baryon density obtained from WMAP.
