BIBFRAME Interoperability Group: Tackling Implementation Challenges Across Institutions

The growing adoption of BIBFRAME (Bibliographic Framework Initiative) by libraries and cultural heritage institutions is facing a crucial challenge: interoperability between different implementations.

BIBFRAME aims to modernize bibliographic data through Linked Data principles, enhancing data connections and promoting more flexible sharing between systems.

However, to ensure effectiveness in diverse environments, greater consistency in the application of standards is required.

To address this need, the BIBFRAME Interoperability Group (BIG) was established in June 2022 under the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC).

The group, which includes thirteen prominent organizations, such as national libraries, OCLC, Share-VDE, and universities, has the main goal of creating guidelines to ensure the consistent and accurate sharing of BIBFRAME data on a global scale, as well as developing the necessary tools for large-scale adoption.

We look forward to sharing progress at the upcoming symposium and continuing to actively engage in the innovation processes within the sector.

Linked Data and Linked Libraries – Collaborative Experiences Between Library Networks and New Bibliographic Models

(Tiziana Possemato - @Cult, Anna Lionetti - Casalini Libri, Claudio Forziati - University of Naples Federico II)

In the international context of cooperative bibliographic data management, the Italian initiatives SHARE Catalogue and Parsifal represent a collaborative model between library networks, developing innovative tools for data management and shared platforms.

Both part of the well-established Share Family – an international ecosystem based on cooperation for managing linked data platforms – these initiatives have implemented advanced linked data systems and entity discovery solutions.

The goal? To facilitate data exchange and interoperability of bibliographic records, improving access to resources for users and optimizing librarians’ workflows.

Among the most significant achievements, Parsifal has developed a shared system for authority data management, while SHARE Catalogue has carried out a key mapping from UNIMARC to BIBFRAME thanks to an inter-university team.

These advancements confirm the importance of the Share Family’s collaborative practices, essential for effectively representing cultural resources on the web while ensuring quality, information reuse, and long-term sustainability.

Leveraging Linked Data Fragments for enhanced data publication: the Share-VDE case study

In the Big Data era, the efficient management of large datasets is becoming an increasingly critical challenge.

In this context, Linked Data Fragments (LDF) are emerging as an innovative solution, offering a distributed and scalable approach to Linked Data publication and distribution.

As part of the Share-VDE initiative, we have developed a set of Web APIs based on LDF, which provide significant benefits, including:

• real-time RDF generation and publication;
• on-demand ontology mapping;
• multi-provenance management.

With the introduction of an RDF API layer based on the innovative concept of Linked Data Fragments, our work is increasingly focused on facilitating the production and consumption of Linked Data, benefiting the dissemination and sharing of global culture.

Jim Hahn, Head of Metadata Research for the Penn Libraries, will present:

Integration of the Share Family Entity Editor and the Alma ILS

In this presentation, he will address the need for catalogers to have the ability to curate or align data from the Alma ILS with Share Family LOD platform clusters, now made possible through JCricket.

HERE more information, or for those interested in attending the session.

For us, even before the relationships between data, those between people and industry professionals are important; that's why every product or solution we develop is, above all, useful!

The JCricket LOD Platform Entity Editor allows professional librarians to improve the quality of the output of data generated automatically from the transformation of MARC records into BIBFRAME descriptions.

In particular, within the framework of the international project SHARE VDE it is functional to the enhancement of the Entity Knowledge Base; an evolving authority source produced through data aggregation processes from participating institutions, consisting of over 150 million BIBFRAME entities, which is constantly updated.

We are pleased to announce the start of the BIBFRAME Workshop in Europe, hosted this year by the National Library of Finland.

On Tuesday, September 17, from 11:25 AM to 12:05 PM, @CULT and Casalini Libri will present: "Share Family: advancements in linked data collaboration," by Tiziana Possemato and Serena Cericola.

During the session, the following will be showcased:

• updates on Share Family, the international library-led initiative that facilitates the implementation of linked data, supporting consortia and individual institutions in the creation, management, and discovery of linked open data through advanced tools that connect bibliographic catalogs and authority files;
• JCricket, the innovative collaborative tool for editing linked data in shared environments by institutions participating in the project, allowing for the editing, control, and enhancement of data quality derived from the conversion from MARC to BIBFRAME;
• use cases for adopting the JCricket and Share Family tools not only in their native environment but also in local library ILS/LSO systems (e.g., FOLIO, Alma) and other linked data systems (e.g., LD4P Sinopia), thus promoting collaborative resource management.

Participation is free with prior registration at this LINK

As usual, the presentations will be available on the portal: www.bfwe.eu

The library global library community is still experimenting and exploring what will replace MARC-based copy cataloging as the cataloging paradigm of the future.

FOLIO’s bibliographic data model has been intended to lend itself well to this exploration, and we have already seen multiple pathways developed and in production.

While BIBFRAME stands as the most likely replacement for MARC today, this change challenges lots of existing library practices and working relationships with vendors, etc.

Lehigh University, the Share-VDE (SVDE) technical team, and Index Data have embarked on a project to bridge the gap between traditional cataloging workflows and emerging, collaborative entity management practices through the integration of FOLIO and SVDE.

This initiative aims to facilitate a hybrid cataloging environment that retains support for existing MARC-based integrations while developing the flexibility and interconnectedness offered by BIBFRAME.

By automating the replication of MARCrecords and SVDE-maintained entities, this project not only enhances the metadata management capabilities of libraries but also paves the way for seamless collaborative cataloging within the SVDE community.

The proposed solution offers a dual-pathway approach, allowing different records to maintain their own source of truth in FOLIO’s inventory app, thereby supporting a pragmatic, stepwise transition towards a linked data ecosystem.

The S.I.R. Information Agency published an article dedicated to the publication, within the series "Biblioteche & Bibliotecari" directed by Prof. Mauro Guerrini, of the work 'Parsifal. A model of library collaboration for sharing recorded knowledge'.

A publication created to commemorate the inaugural day of the Parsifal catalogue held on 11 May 2023 in the Aula Magna named after John Paul II at the Pontifical Urbanian University; a project realised by @CULT, Casalini Libri S.p.A. Group, and Unione Romana Biblioteche Ecclesiastiche (Urbe).

Presentation by Tiziana Possemato:

Fostering BIBFRAME collaboration: interoperability and data curation with the Share Family

The BIBFRAME Update Forum in January, 2024 highlighted BIBFRAME system implementation activities of two of our valuable community institutions: ExLibris and OCLC.

We continue that thrust with an update from the Share Family linked data ecosystem, and its component, Share-VDE.Share-VDE was the first system to make a major commitment to BIBFRAME and has been active with BIBFRAME since 2016.

The several Share Family projects all maintain standardization of BIBFRAME linked data as defined by the Library of Congress and the presentation will emphasize how standard BIBFRAME is a key to our community’s integrated environments as systems proliferate, from both the interoperability and the data curation point of view.

As the Library of Congress gets closer to its own BIBFRAME crossover, a major issue will be the incorporation of many more scripts in bibliographic data.Staff will share information on what to expect, and how to deal with this major enhancement to our data assisted by a tool for transliteration, Scriptshifter.

They will demonstrate its use with the BIBFRAME editor, Marva, and show how it can be used from the web.

We are excited to share our recent participation in the Coalition for Networked Information's Project Briefing Series, where we presented insights from the Share Family initiative's ongoing efforts to advance linked open data and optimize library workflows and services.

Titled "The Share Family: Cooperation and Interconnection for a Sustainable Linked Open Data Ecosystem," our presentation provided an overview of the Share Family linked data ecosystem and its impact on library operations. From cooperative cataloging to advanced metadata management tools and discovery portals, we explored how these innovations are shaping the future of knowledge accessibility.

Development of the Share-VDE ontology: goals, principles, and process

Share-VDE (SVDE) is a library-driven initiative which brings together the bibliographic catalogues and authority files of a community of libraries in a shared discovery environment based on the linked data ontology BIBFRAME.

The presentation describes the design process of the SVDE ontology, developed as an extension of BIBFRAME, with the criterion of reusing existing vocabularies where possible to reduce its complexity.

"The Share Family has supported us through the transition from our traditional MARC data to linked open data. We provided a full copy of the British National Bibliography to the Share team for identification and clustering of entities, e.g. works, publications, persons. Working with colleagues from other institutions on Share-VDE working groups we contribute to the development of the underlying data structures and the presentation of data. This collaborative approach has enabled delivery of the British National Bibliography as the first institutional tenant of the Share Family National Bibliographies Portal".
