DESCRIPTION

MARC is dying, some people say, but what comes instead? The Library of Congress has initiated the Bibliographic Framework Transition Initiative (BIBFRAME) that develop a transition path from traditional, records-based bibliographic descriptions to a model built on linked data principles. Deutsche Nationalbibliothek (German National Library, DNB) is among the early implementers. This presentation held at SWIB 2013 in Hamburg gives an overview of the initiative, the activities performed by the DNB so far and what the future might look like.

BIBFRAME: Libraries can lead Linked Data

Julia Hauser, Reinhold Heuvelmann und Lars G. Svensson

Libraries are increasingly exchanging data with other cultural heritage institutions

| 25 | BIBFRAME | November 26, 20132

Everyone here knows that this is both an opportunity and a challenge

| 25 | BIBFRAME | November 26, 20133

“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but rather the one most adaptable to change”

Paraphrase of Darwin by Leon C. Megginson

Non-libraries have a problem with data encoded in MARC (and so do some librarians…)

We need a format that allows for easier data reuse – inside and outside of libraries

| 25 | BIBFRAME | November 26, 20135

BIBFRAME is an attempt to achieve that

| 25 | BIBFRAME | November 26, 20136

There won't be any Semantic Web that any mortal can understand until librarians help build it!

Uche Ogbuji on Twitter, 2013-01-27

BIBFRAME will determine a transition path from MARC 21 to an exchange format based on linked data principles

Important requirements are:

– Model agnostic

– Support RDA, and other cataloging rules

– Extensible for new kinds of library material

| 25 | BIBFRAME | November 26, 20138

The model is based on four core classes:

– Work

– Instance

– Authority

– Annotation

| 25 | BIBFRAME | November 26, 20139

Interoperability with other models is achieved through community profiles

The DNB has an experimental implementation of the BIBFRAME model

| 25 | BIBFRAME | November 26, 201311

The instance data is mainly basedon strings<bf:Instance rdf:about="http://d-nb.info/102239648X"><bf:modeOfIssuance>Einbändiges Werk</bf:modeOfIssuance>

<bf:instanceOf rdf:resource="http://d-nb.info/bf_temp/work_102239648X" /><bf:isbn13>9783866802476</bf:isbn13><bf:ean>9783866802476</bf:ean><bf:nbn>12,N22</bf:nbn><bf:nbn>12,A36</bf:nbn><bf:local>

</bf:local><bf:responsibilityStatement>

<bf:illustrativeContentNote>zahlr. Ill., Kt.</bf:illustrativeContentNote> <bf:title>Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg</bf:title>

</bf:providerEntity><bf:frequency rdf:resource="http://marc21rdf.info/terms/continuingfre%23/u" />

</bf:Instance>12

The information about the work ismore linked to other entities

<bf:Work rdf:about="http://d-nb.info/bf_temp/work_102239648X"><rdf:type rdf:resource="LanguageMaterial" /><bf:hasInstance rdf:resource="http://d-nb.info/102239648X" /><bf:associatedAgent>

For full integration into the linked data service we need to create profiles

GET /102239648X HTTP 1.1

Host: d-nb.info

Accept: application/rdf+xml

Link: <http://d-nb.info/standards/profiles/bibframe>; rel=“profile”

| 25 | BIBFRAME | November 26, 201314

Possible solution

Much work remains to be done

| 25 | BIBFRAME | November 26, 201315

The BIBFRAME vocabulary must be enriched and then stabilised
