CaMMS Forum: BIBFRAME Experimentation and Development
When: Sunday, June 28, 2015 - 1:00pm to 2:00pm
Location: Moscone Convention Center 132 (N)
BIBFRAME, in the early stages of development, has moved into a time rich
with experimentation and possibilities. Come and join us for a lively
hour of presentation and discussion, covering experimental projects
underway at the University of Washington and about vocabulary
development occurring with a group of partner libraries.
*Speaker 1: Joseph Kiegel*
The University of Washington has been working actively on BIBFRAME since
2014.This presentation describes three separate projects.The first
involved staff training in RDF and BIBFRAME, and then a review of
converted MARC records.The process of organizing for the review is
described and sample results are given.In a second project, a mapping
from RDA Core to BIBFRAME was developed and tested using native RDA
cataloging.A third project, which is in its initial stages, involves
assembling a body of topically related material in CONTENTdm, MARC and
EAD and converting them to BIBFRAME.
*Speaker 2: Nancy Fallgren*:
The National Library of Medicine ('NLM') has proposed that BIBFRAME
should be a lean, broadly shareable vocabulary that is supplemented with
more specificity from other more specialized descriptive schema. Toward
that goal, NLM has been collaborating with Zepheira, George Washington
University, and University of California, Davis, on development of
Zepheira's BF Lite vocabulary. This presentation will provide an update
on the progress of that collaboration.
