A Little Background
MAchine Readable Cataloging (MARC) (1967)
A communication format for sharing cataloging via “machines”

Technology has advanced . . .
MARC has not kept pace.

Cataloging has changed . . .
• Resource Description and Access (RDA) (2013)
– Focuses on relationships in and among resources
– Vocabularies and relationships are being developed in a linked data format
– Adjustments to MARC to accommodate RDA renders both standards more complicated and confusing
4
MARC has been left behind.

Replacing MARC “On the Record” (Working Group on the Future of Bibliographic Control, 2009)
– 3.1.1 Develop a More Flexible Extensible Metadata Carrier – 3.1.2 Integrate Library Standards into Web Environment
Report and Recommendations of the U.S. RDA Test Coordinating Committee (2011)
– Findings: Systems, Metadata, and Technical Feasibility (p. 101) • “ . . . it [MARC] has reached the limit for significant improvement
in allowing our data to be widely integrated and used across the information landscape.”
• “While one of RDA’s goals is to explicitly express resource relationships, MARC will not allow our systems to easily display and utilize these relationships. . . . MARC may hinder the separation of elements and ability to use URIs in a linked data environment.”

BIBFRAME’s Goals
• Flexible/extensible framework for adaptability and longevity – Rule agnostic
– Web-based
• Leverage linked data model for sharing resource description – Make use of controlled vocabularies and authoritative
data sets published as URIs
– Make explicit relationships within and among resources at a granular level

• How does RDA fit in the proposed model?
• How will specific categories of resources fit in the proposed model, e.g., serials and music?
• How will non-MARC metadata schemes be mapped and encoded?
• What’s missing from the proposed model?
• How does BIBRAME align with Schema.org’s efforts in this same area?

Serials are messy Can a serial be a bf:Work, “a conceptual cataloging item,” when it’s grounded in time and place?
Should there be a new “Collection” class to collocate collections of bf:Works?
Should “Collection” be a type of bf:Work?
Are supplements new bf:Works?
