Encoding RDA Data•One more time: RDA is a content standard
not a display standard▫It is also not an encoding standard
•Examples so far have shown RDA in a MARC environment
•But RDA is also designed to be flexible.▫Can be encoded in MODS, Dublin Core,
etc….▫…and in RDF

RDF -Resource Description Framework•RDF is a Web standard for describing any
thing, concept, or relationship•Each thing, concept, and relationship is
represented by a globally unique URI•Relationships between these entities are
represented by RDA triples in the form: subject, predicate, object
•For example…

Linked Data•A set of best practices for
▫Sharing data▫On the Web▫In machine-readable form
•Four rules▫Provide a URI▫Make the URI an HTTP URL▫Provide interesting information▫Link to other URIs so more things can be
discovered

BIBFRAME•Full name: Bibliographic Framework
Transition Initiative•Initiative of the Library of Congress•Essentially a linked data model for library
bibliographic data•Potential replacement/supplement for
MARC

BIBFRAME•Each instance gets a URI•Relationships between works, instances,
authorities, places, recorded•Needs to be harmonized with FRBR—
Expressions?▫FRBR seen as an abstract model▫BIBFRAME is a Web implementation

•Talk to vendors▫Show them MDR▫Ask them what their plans are for L.D.
•Follow BIBFRAME development▫Bibframe.org▫[email protected]
•Look for RDA records in your discovery tools▫Think about search strategies▫Ask a cataloger for help!
•Link your data▫Discographies, bibliographies, thematic
catalogs▫Digital Humanities projects
