About this Item

Title

  • Bibliographic Framework Initiative

Summary

  • The presenters give an update on the status of the Library of Congress initiative to review the current bibliographic framework to accommodate future needs in a better manner. A major focus of the initiative is to determine a transition path for the MARC 21 exchange format in order to reap the benefits of newer technology while preserving a robust data exchange that has supported resource sharing and cataloging cost savings in recent decades. McCallum will provide background on some of the current standards and format structures to help understand what some of the possibilities might be for the future.
