International Conference UNIMARC & Friends: charting the new landscape of library standards
Programme and registration information at: http://unimarc.bn.pt Organisation: IFLA UNIMARC Core Activity Support: IFLA, National Library of Portugal, Art Library - Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation With the expansion of the WWW in the last decade, libraries have been facing a multiplicity of challenges in the changing network infrastructure and in new types, genres and forms of information resources and information services. This has motivated novel approaches in terms of metadata and the rethinking of models underpinning bibliographic retrieval services. The objective of this Conference is to disclose the current state-of-the-art of new conceptual models and data specifications with implications for the future of MARC standards, particularly UNIMARC. The conference will explore topics such as trends in the revision of ISBDs, cataloguing codes, FRBR and FRANAR models, non-MARC metadata schemes and Web based transmission standards. If you are a UNIMARC user please don't forget to register to the 1st Meeting of the UNIMARC Users Group, 21 March afternoon. The Programme will be available soon. Register now!
