Current situation
 Web scale discovery services, aggregation portals
and Linked data
 Libraries
 may enhance the impact of their collections
 host a variety of materials
 use many metadata formats
 Metadata interoperability: common vocabularies
and harmonization with commonly accepted
conceptual models
2
Conceptual models
 Library domain
 FRBR
 FRBRoo
 BIBFRAME
 Cultural Heritage domain
 Europeana Data Model – EDM
 Digital Public Library of America Metadata Application
Profile – DPLA MAP

Aim
 Contribute to interoperability
 Integration of BIBFRAME data into Europeana
 Mapping
 Core classes
 Core properties
4
Following
 Presentation of BIBFRAME and EDM
 Mapping methodology
 Proposed mapping
5
BIBFRAME (1)
Libraries use
MARC family of
standards for
record-based
descriptions of
library objects
 Requirement:
Easy transition
to any new
model!

BIBFRAME (2)
 … Linked data model
 Main classes
 Creative Work
 Instance
 Authority
(People, Places, Organizations)
 Annotation
7
Europeana Data Model
 Linked data model
 Digitized Cultural Heritage Objects (CHOs)
 Main classes
 edm:ProvidedCHO
 edm:WebResource
 ore:Aggregation
 Alignment of EDM
to library metadata
8
EDM related mapping tasks
 EDM library alignment report (2012)
 Notion of ‘edition’
 FRBR concepts under consideration
WORK
Don Quixote (DQ)
EXPRESSION
English translation of DQ
MANIFESTATION
Embodiment of Expression
ITEM
Single copy of the book
 Edition = union of FRBR Work – Expression –
Manifestation entities
 EDM-FRBRoo application profile (2013)
 FRBRoo, object-oriented version of FRBR
 Compliance with FRBR concepts
 Using FRBRoo semantics

Selection of specific type(s) of library material
Requirements for a BIBFRAME – EDM profile
Real test case and bibliographic records
Test case in BIBFRAME
Path-oriented approach
Transformation of BIBFRAME representation in

Test case

 Focus on monographs and
multivolume works
 Don Quixote de la Mancha
 multipart monograph
 published in a single volume
 published as individual volumes too
 Seven bibliographic records from National Library of
Spain and Library of Congress
11
Bibliographic records
1= El ingenioso hidalgo don Quixote de la Mancha (First Part)
2= Segunda parte del Ingenioso Caballero don Quixote de la Mancha (Second part)
3= Primera y segunda parte del ingenioso hidalgo don Quixote de la Mancha (Two parts in one
single volume)
4= Histoire de l'admirable don Quichotte de la Manche (French Translation of 3)
5= The history of the most renowned Don Quixote of Mancha (English translation of 4)
6= Don Quijote de la Mancha, annotated edition by F.Rico (Annotated edition incorporating
1,2,3 texts)
7= Don Quijote de la Mancha, CDROM (Annotated edition in CD ROM. Includes a linguistic
database that we think as a separate Work)
8= CDROM linguistic database by Torruella & Picchi (included in 7)

BIBFRAME representation
13
Mapping BIBFRAME to EDM
Work –hasInstance – Instance - hasAnnotation - heldMaterial - electronicLocator – URI
14
EDM representation
15
Discussion (1)
 Mapping to BIBFRAME to EDM is achievable without
significant loss of semantics
 Basic BIBFRAME path
Work –hasInstance – Instance - hasAnnotation - heldMaterial - electronicLocator – URI
 Existence of this path justifies
 aggregation of this Instance (+ Work) by Europeana,
 mapping of the BIBFRAME “Work – hasInstance –
Instance” path to one edm:ProvidedCHO class
 an instantiation of the edm:webResource class
16
Discussion (2)
 path – oriented approach
 BIBFRAME under development and EDM updated
regularly
 Future investigations
 Other types of material
 Non digitized materials
 Use of ore:proxy class
