Abstract
- By way of a case study, this paper illustrates and evaluates the Bibliographic Framework (or BIBFRAME) as means for harvesting and sharing bibliographic metadata over the web for libraries. BIBFRAME is an emerging framework developed by the Library of Congress for bibliographic description based on Linked Data. Much like Semantic Web, the goal of Linked Data is to make the web “data aware” and transform the existing web of documents into a web of data. Linked Data leverages the existing web infrastructure and allows linking and sharing of structured data for human and machine consumption. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
