2020-July-09 One for all, RDF Application Profiles track (Nancy Lorimer & Paloma Graciani Picardo)
Channel: LD4
Date: 2020-07-10

The LD4P Profiles Affinity Group was created to monitor the Sinopia Linked Data development and to create profiles for use by the LD4P2 cohort. One goal of the group has been to adapt the Library of Congress profiles to Sinopia, and use them as a set of profiles that could be used without changes for the majority of library cataloging work. These profiles would also serve as base templates for more specialized areas of work, and would eventually inform profile creation by cataloging standards groups such as the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC). This talk discusses our work in cooperative profile development--creating a process for profile change, versioning, modeling issues, technical problems, training & best practices--as well as the even bigger challenges of associating Bibframe to content standards such as RDA, and our early exploration with reusing linked data from other sources, such as the Library of Congress and SHARE-VDE.
