Abstract

If one follows any of the major cataloging or library blogs these days, it is obvious that the topic of FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records) has increasingly become one of major significance for the library community. What began as a proposed conceptual entity-relationship model for improving the structure of bibliographic records has become a hotly debated topic with many tangled threads that have implications not just for cataloging but for many aspects of libraries and librarianship. In the fall of 2005, the Perseus Project experimented with creating a FRBRized catalog for its current online classics collection, a collection that consists of several hundred classical texts in Greek and Latin as well as reference works and scholarly commentaries regarding these works. In the last two years, with funding from the Mellon Foundation, Perseus has amassed and digitized a growing collection of classical texts (some as image books on our own servers that will eventually be made available through Fedora), and some available through the Open Content Alliance (OCA)2, and created FRBRized cataloging data for these texts. This work was done largely as an experiment to see the potential of the FRBR model for creating a specialized catalog for classics.
Our catalog should not be called a FRBR catalog perhaps, but instead a "FRBR Inspired catalog." As such our main goal has been "practical findability," we are seeking to support the four identified user tasks of the FRBR model, or to "Search, Identify, Select, and Obtain," rather than to create a FRBR catalog, per se. By encoding as much information as possible in the MODS and MADS records we have created, we believe that useful searching will be supported, that by using unique identifiers for works and authors users will be able to identify that the entity they have located is the desired one, that by encoding expression level information (such as the language of the work, the translator, etc) users will be able to select which expression of a work they are interested in, and that by supplying links to different online manifestations that users will be able to obtain access to a digital copy of a work. This white paper will discuss previous and current efforts by the Perseus Project in creating a FRBRized catalog, including the cataloging workflow, lessons learned during the process and will also seek to place this work in the larger context of research regarding FRBR, cataloging, Library 2.0 and the Semantic Web, and the growing importance of the FRBR model in the face of growing million book digital libraries.

Abstract

The aim of the CATRIONA (Cataloguing and Retrieval of Information over Networks Applications) feasibility study was to investigate the technical, organizational and financial requirements for the development of applications software and procedures to enable the cataloguing, calssification and retrieval of documents and other resources over networks such as the Internet. The CATRIONA feasibility study demonstrated that the idea of a distributed catalogue of Internet resources integrated with standard Z39.50 library system OPAC interfaces is already a practical proposition at its most basic level. Proposes that the next step should be a distributed CATRIONA demonstrator project, based on the Scottish University and Research Libraries (SCURL) group of libraries cooperating to catalogue local electronic resources and selected areas of BUBL Subject Trees, but also sufficiently 'open' to encompass other sites, projects and approaches

Abstract

The future of bibliographic control will be collaborative, decentralized, international in scope, and Web-based. Its realization will occur in cooperation with the private sector, and with the active collaboration of library users. Data will be gathered from multiple sources; change will happen quickly; and bibliographic control will be dynamic, not static. The underlying technology that makes this future possible and necessary-the World Wide Web-is now almost two decades old. Libraries must continue the transition to this future without delay in order to retain their relevance as information providers. The Working Group on the Future of Bibliographic Control encourages the library community to take a thoughtful and coordinated approach to effecting significant changes in bibliographic control. Such an approach will call for leadership that is neither unitary nor centralized. Nor will the responsibility to provide such leadership fall solely to the Library of Congress (LC). That said, the Working Group recognizes that LC plays a unique role in the library community of the United States, and the directions that LC takes have great impact on all libraries. We also recognize that there are many other institutions and organizations that have the expertise and the capacity to play significant roles in the bibliographic future. Wherever possible, those institutions must step forward and take responsibility for assisting with navigating the transition and for playing appropriate ongoing roles after that transition is complete. To achieve the goals set out in this document, we must look beyond individual libraries to a system wide deployment of resources. We must realize efficiencies in order to be able to reallocate resources from certain lower-value components of the bibliographic control ecosystem into other higher-value components of that same ecosystem. The recommendations in this report are directed at a number of parties, indicated either by their common initialism (e.g., "LC" for Library of Congress, "PCC" for Program for Cooperative Cataloging) or by their general category (e.g., "Publishers," "National Libraries"). When the recommendation is addressed to "All," it is intended for the library community as a whole and its close collaborators.
The Library of Congress must begin by prioritizing the recommendations that are directed in whole or in part at LC. Some define tasks that can be achieved immediately and with moderate effort; others will require analysis and planning that will have to be coordinated broadly and carefully. The Working Group has consciously not associated time frames with any of its recommendations. The recommendations fall into five general areas: 1. Increase the efficiency of bibliographic production for all libraries through increased cooperation and increased sharing of bibliographic records, and by maximizing the use of data produced throughout the entire "supply chain" for information resources. 2. Transfer effort into higher-value activity. In particular, expand the possibilities for knowledge creation by "exposing" rare and unique materials held by libraries that are currently hidden from view and, thus, underused. 3. Position our technology for the future by recognizing that the World Wide Web is both our technology platform and the appropriate platform for the delivery of our standards. Recognize that people are not the only users of the data we produce in the name of bibliographic control, but so too are machine applications that interact with those data in a variety of ways. 4. Position our community for the future by facilitating the incorporation of evaluative and other user-supplied information into our resource descriptions. Work to realize the potential of the FRBR framework for revealing and capitalizing on the various relationships that exist among information resources. 5. Strengthen the library profession through education and the development of metrics that will inform decision-making now and in the future. The Working Group intends what follows to serve as a broad blueprint for the Library of Congress and its colleagues in the library and information technology communities for extending and promoting access to information resources.

Abstract

This report constitutes Phase I of a two-part study; a Phase II report will discuss subject cataloging. Phase I is concerned with the materials of a library as individual records (or documents) and as representations of certain works by certain authors--that is, with descriptive, or bibliographic, cataloging. Discussed in the report are (1) the history, role, function, and oblectives .of the author-and-title catalog; (2) problems and principles of descriptive catalogng, including the use and function of "main entry, the principle of authorship, and the process and problems of cataloging print and nonprint materials; (3) organization of the catalog; and (4) potentialities of automation. The considerations inherent in bibliographic cataloging, such as the distinction between the "book" and the "work," are said to be so elemental that they are essential not only to the effective control of library's materials but also to that of the information contained in the materials. Because of the special concern with information, the author includes a discussion of the "Bibliographic Dimensions of Information Control," 'prepared in collaboration with Robert M. Hayes, which also appears in "American Documentation," VOl.201 July 1969, p. 247-252.

Abstract

In den letzten Jahren wurde eine Vielzahl an Datensets aus Kultur- und Wissenschaftseinrichtungen als Linked Open Data veröffentlicht. Auch das deutsche Bibliothekswesen hat sich aktiv an den Entwicklungen im Bereich Linked Data beteiligt. Die zuvor lediglich in den Bibliothekskatalogen vorliegenden Daten können weiteren Sparten geöffnet und so auf vielfältige Weise in externe Anwendungen eingebunden werden. Gemeinsames Ziel bei der Veröffentlichung der Bibliotheksdaten als Linked Data ist außerdem, Interoperabilität und Nachnutzbarkeit zu ermöglichen und sich auf diese Weise stärker mit anderen Domänen außerhalb der Bibliothekswelt zu vernetzen. Es bestehen sowohl Linked-Data-Services einzelner Bibliotheken als auch der deutschen Bibliotheksverbünde. Trotz ihres gemeinsamen Ziels sprechen die bestehenden Services nicht die gleiche Sprache, da sie auf unterschiedlichen Modellierungen basieren. Um die Interoperabilität dieser Datenquellen zu gewährleisten, sollten die Dienste künftig einer einheitlichen Modellierung folgen. Vor diesem Hintergrund wurde im Januar 2012 eine Arbeitsgruppe gegründet, in der alle deutschen Bibliotheksverbünde, die Deutsche Nationalbibliothek sowie einige weitere interessierte und engagierte Kolleginnen und Kollegen mit entsprechender Expertise vertreten sind. Die Gruppe Titeldaten agiert seit April 2012 als Untergruppe des Kompetenzzentrums Interoperable Metadaten (DINI-AG KIM). Die Moderation und Koordination liegt bei der Deutschen Nationalbibliothek. Im Dezember 2012 schloss sich auch der OBVSG der Arbeitsgruppe an. Die Schweizerische Nationalbibliothek folgte im Mai 2013. Vorliegende Empfehlungen sollen zu einer Harmonisierung der RDFRepräsentationen von Titeldaten im deutschsprachigen Raum beitragen und so möglichst einen Quasi-Standard etablieren. Auch international wird an der Herausforderung gearbeitet, die bestehenden bibliothekarischen Strukturen in die heute zur Verfügung stehenden Konzepte des Semantic Web zu überführen und ihren Mehrwert auszuschöpfen. Die neuesten internationalen Entwicklungen im Bereich der Bereitstellung bibliografischer Daten im Semantic Web wie die Bibliographic Framework Transition Initiative der Library of Congress (BIBFRAME) haben ebenfalls das Ziel, ein Modell zur RDF-Repräsentation bibliothekarischer Daten bereitzustellen. Die Gruppe Titeldaten beobachtet diese Entwicklungen und beabsichtigt, die Erfahrungen und Anforderungen der deutschsprachigen Bibliothekswelt mit einzubringen. Dabei werden einerseits international erarbeitete Empfehlungen aufgegriffen und andererseits Impulse aus der nationalen Kooperation dort eingebracht. Die hier verwendeten Properties könnten z. B. als Grundlage für ein Mapping zu BIBFRAME dienen.
