Preserving Bibliographic Relationships in Mappings from FRBR to BIBFRAME 2.0

Abstract

Abstract. In the environment of the World Wide Web large volumes of library data have been published following different conceptual models. The navigation through these volumes and the data interlinking require the development of mappings between the conceptual models. Library conceptual models provide constructs for the representation of bibliographic families and the relationships between Works. A key requirement for successful mappings between different conceptual models is to preserve such content relationships. This paper studies a set of cases (Work with single Expression, Work with multiple Expressions, translation, adaptation) to examine if and how bibliographic content relationships and families could be preserved in mappings from FRBR to BIBFRAME 2.0. Even though, relationships between Works of the same bibliographic family may be preserved, the progenitor Work is not always represented in BIBFRAME after mappings.

Linked data for libraries: Creating a global knowledge space, a systematic literature review

“…In 2017, a new research study came that aimed to develop and implement a framework for the integration of bibliographic data in the Semantic Web [256]. Finally, they studied a set of cases (Work with single Expression, Work with multiple Expressions, translation, adaptation) to examine if and how bibliographic content relationships and families could be preserved in mappings from FRBR to BIBFRAME 2.0 [257]. They explored the fine-tuning of a testbed for mappings from FRBR to BIBFRAME and revealed that derivations expressed at the FRBR Expression level are mapped to BIBFRAME more adequately than those expressed at the FRBR Work level [258].…”
