BIBFRAME: Why?

“Most felt any benefits of RDA would be largely unrealized in a MARC environment. MARC may hinder the separation of elements and ability to use URIs in a linked data environment.”

Report and Recommendations of the U.S. RDA Test Coordinating Committee. Executive Summary. 2011.

Cataloguing: The Future

1. Is our ambition simply to replace MARC?

2. Can a single standard provide the answer?

3. Can we afford to focus solely on cataloguing or even on the library?

4. Why is BIBFRAME, or any standard, a better way of doing it?
