Description

BIBFRAME is the Library of Congress's current effort to develop a linked data replacement for MARC. BIBFRAME is a work in progress, not yet ready for implementation. In this two-hour session, we will examine how BIBFRAME works, what it is intended to accomplish, and the progress that has been made toward that goal. We'll take a look at the BIBFRAME tools that are under development, including the prototype editor for creating new records. And we'll share a glimpse of what the future holds for library catalogs and cataloging.
