B BIBFRAME provides a foundation for the future of bibliographic description, both on the web, and in the broader networked world. BIBFRAME serves as a general model for expressing and connecting bibliographic data. (Library of Congress, n.d., para.1)

“What is BIBFRAME all about? It's not just recognizing that we are in a network world, but fully embracing that fact. It's about not just being on the web, but being of the web … [It’s about] getting our resources in the hands of our patrons. We want the search engines to work to our advantage.” Kevin Ford (Digital project coordinator in the Network Development and MARC Standards Office at the Library of Congress). (Library of Congress, 2014.)

(Library of Congress, 2012, p. 9)

Creative Work - a resource reflecting a conceptual essence of the cataloguing item. FRBR /RDA – Work and Expression (Library of Congress, 2012, p.9 )

Instance - a resource reflecting an individual, material embodiment of the Work. FRBR - Manifestation (Library of Congress, 2012, p. 9)

Authority - a resource reflecting key authority concepts that have defined relationships reflected in the Work and Instance. E.g. Person, Places, Topics, Organisations FRBR – Person, Family, Corporate body, Concept, Object, Place, Event (Library of Congress, 2012, p. 9)

Annotation - resource that decorates other BIBFRAME resources with additional information FRBR - Item (McCallum, 2012, slide 27)

Work in progress “BIBFRAME [is] the format that we expect to replace MARC in the future … that could be two years, five years, but definitely is going to lead us into the linked data world.” Beacher J.E. Wiggins (Director for Acquisitions and Bibliographic Access at the Library of Congress) 2014 (Library of Congress, 2014.)

“So let’s agitate for library systems that leave MARC behind... Let’s make sure the process to replace MARC doesn’t take another decade, and that, when it is done, we end up with something that really will help us do our jobs and participate with the rest of the online community” Lori Bowen Ayre (Head of Galecia Group) Change in systems (Ayre, 2015, para 16)

Now what ? Sit back, wait and watch Learn about linked data* Consider the role of URIs in your current data Keep an eye on what is happening Be an agitator for change *Richard Wallis, Technology Evangelist, OCLC
