Integrating library and cultural heritage data models: the BIBFRAME - EDM case Sofia Zapounidou 1, Michalis Sfakakis 1, Christos Papatheodorou 1,2 1.Department of Archives and Library Science, Ionian University, Corfu, Greece 2.Digital Curation Unit, IMIS, “Athena” Research Center, Athens, Greece

2 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

3 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) 6 Print screen from AUTh Library CatalogAUTh Library Catalog  Libraries use MARC family of standards for record-based descriptions of library objects  Requirement:  Easy transition to any new model!

BIBFRAME (2) 7  … Linked data model  Main classes  Creative Work  Instance  Authority ( People, Places, Organizations )  Annotation

Europeana Data Model 8  Linked data model  Digitized Cultural Heritage Objects (CHOs)  Main classes  edm:ProvidedCHO  edm:WebResource  ore:Aggregation  Alignment of EDM to library metadata

EDM related mapping tasks  EDM library alignment report (2012)  Notion of ‘edition’  FRBR concepts under consideration  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 9 WORK Don Quixote (DQ) EXPRESSION English translation of DQ MANIFESTATION Embodiment of Expression ITEM Single copy of the book

Methodology  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 EDM following the library data alignment report 10

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 ©César González via Flickr

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) 12

EDM representation 15

Discussion (1) 16  Mapping to BIBFRAME to EDM is achievable without significant loss of semantics  Basic BIBFRAME path  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 Work –hasInstance – Instance - hasAnnotation - heldMaterial - electronicLocator – URI

Discussion (2) 17  path – oriented approach  BIBFRAME under development and EDM updated regularly  Future investigations  Other types of material  Non digitized materials  Use of ore:proxy class
