2 Agenda The evolution of RDA The challenges of implementing RDA Highlight of issues with MARC in its relation to RDA Role that BIBFRAME can play in the newly emerging information model Conclusion

3 I. Evolution of RDA

4 RDA Implementation at OSU Implemented in 2012 About 25 catalogers across OSU libraries Workshop once a week with hands on training Web site for resources Final exam Celebration Refresher sessions

5 Foreign Languages and Resource Discovery

6 RDA Chapter 0 RDA Purpose and Scope (RDA 0.0): Purpose 1: RDA provides a set of guidelines and instructions on recording data to support resource discovery. Purpose 2: The data created using RDA to describe a resource are designed to assist users performing the following tasks: Find, Identify, Select, Obtain Purpose 3: Data created using RDA to describe an entity associated with a resource (an agent, concept, etc.) are designed to assist users in performing the following tasks: Find, Identify, Clarify, Understand

7 RDA -- Names found in a non-preferred script If the name of a person is found in a script that differs from a preferred script of the agency creating the data, transliterate the name according to the scheme chosen by the agency If there is a well-established form of name in reference sources in a language preferred by the agency creating the data, choose that form of name as the preferred name. If different forms are found in reference sources in a language preferred by the agency creating the data, choose the form that occurs most frequently. Record the other forms of the transliterated name as variant names

10 Alternative Linguistic Form of Name for Place -- RDA If the name recorded as the preferred name for a place has one or more alternative linguistic forms, record them as variant names.

22 Opportunity 2 -- FRBR-Library Reference Model While entities, and the relationships between them, provide the structure of the model, attributes are what gives flesh to the description of an instance of an entity. The logical repeatability or non-repeatability of attributes is not prescribed by the model. There are basically two ways to represent an attribute in an actual implementation: an attribute can be represented as a mere literal (a string, a number...): this is what OWL regards as datatype properties ; an attribute can be represented as a URI pointing to an external source (a referential or normative document of any kind, such as an authority file, or a list of coded values), in which case it could have been modelled as a relationship rather than a mere attribute, but the model is meant to remain agnostic as to the way it is to be implemented: this is what OWL regards as object properties.

23 Represent an attribute Using MARC 21 How to represent an attribute with the current catalog structure? Catalog as usual using OCLC Connexion Save records in the local save file in Connexion Use MarcEditor to bring record from OCLC Connexion Edit the record Add external links

39 II. Challenges of implementing RDA

40 Challenges of implementing RDA Taught RDA to 500 people throughout the world Rules not clear FRBR (expression vs manifestation; lack of teaching and training) Problems and issues My head's been swimming since 2013 with trying to understand FRBR, RDA and linked data ) does anyone have an idea as to why we correct typographical errors in serials but not in monographs?

41 III. MARC 21 and its relation to RDA

42 Problems with MARC MARC is a cataloging standard Used within library communities MARC may hinder the separation of elements and ability to use URIs in linked environment. (Report and Recommendations of the U.S. Test Coordinating Committee Summary 2011) MARC field by field

43 Problems with MARC -- Cont. Use both ISBD punctuation and MARC subfields 264 _1 Columbus : $b Library unlimited, 2017 Data are recorded in multiple places 008 (positions 35-37) Arabic $l Arabic 546 In Arabic MARC does not fit into the Web model of data formats

44 MARC (positive) Many updates: 336,337, To replace the 245 $h GMD 264 To replace , 345, 346, 347 New bibliographic format fields to represent carrier characteristics 046, 368,371, 372, 373, 374, 375, 376, 378 New MARC Authority Fields for name attributes. 046, 370, 377, 380, 381, 382, 384 New MARC Authority and Bibliographic field for work and expression attributes $e and $4 in 1xx, 6xx,7xx, 8xx relationship name to resources

45 Positive Multilingual subject access Use with MarcEdit to create identifiers for all access points to convert them to linked data It is currently the basis for the Library Management Systems

46 IV -- Role that BIBFRAME can play in the newly emerging information model

47 BIBliographic FRAMEwork initiative Image from Bibframe website

48 Role of Bibframe in new information model The new bibliographic framework project will be focused on the Web environment, Linked Data principles and mechanisms, and the Resource Description Framework (RDF) as a basic data model. * * Library of Congress. A Bibliographic Framework for the Digital Age. 31 October html

49 What it is. Viewed as a replacement of MARC 21 Improve/revolutionize the way library data is described, created, exchanged and used. Web technologies known as HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol), URIs (Uniform Resource Identifiers) and RDF (Resource Description Framework) Developed for the semantic web Still a metadata encoding and exchange standard

50 RDA effect on Bibframe Incorporating the IFLA LRM in RDA (replacing FRBR, FRAD, FRSAD) Three new entities will be added to RDA: Collective Agent, Nomen, and Time-span. Two other entities, Agent and Place, will be added. RDA Registry and Bibframe vocabulary

51 Conclusion RDA gave us the ability to enrich bib records with new data MARC remains a useful tool until we have a replacement MarcEdit facilitates the generation of URI s for almost all access points and also links terms to external sources. Bibframe can create an environment for libraries to create datasets that can stand alone or be integrated with other datasets
