Wow. Thank you, Owen! As a way not to lose these, I have done a crude
page on the futurelib wiki with the contents of your mail, and promise
to clean it up at some not too distant date:
http://futurelib.pbworks.com/w/page/48408645/MARC%20in%20RDF
When/if I get the time, I will try to dig into the details of some of
these and see how one could do a comparison. Obviously, if someone
else is able to do that before I get to it, *please* post here!

Quoting Owen Stephens <o...@ostephens.com>:
It would be great to start collecting transforms together - just a
quick brain dump of some I'm aware of
MARC21 transformations
Cambridge University Library - http://data.lib.cam.ac.uk -
transformation made available (in code) from same site
Open University - http://data.open.ac.uk - specific transform for
materials related to teaching, code available at
http://code.google.com/p/luceroproject/source/browse/trunk%20luceroproject/OULinkedData/src/uk/ac/open/kmi/lucero/rdfextractor/RDFExtractor.java (MARC transform is in libraryRDFExtraction
method)
COPAC - small set of records from the COPAC Union catalogue - data
and transform not yet published
Podes Projekt - LinkedAuthors - documentation at
http://bibpode.no/linkedauthors/doc/Pode-LinkedAuthors-Documentation.pdf - 2
stage transformation firstly from MARC to FRBRized version of data,
then from FRBRized data to RDF. These linked from documentation
Podes Project - LinkedNonFiction - documentation at
http://bibpode.no/linkednonfiction/doc/Pode-LinkedNonFiction-Documentation.pdf - MARC data transformed using xslt
https://github.com/pode/LinkedNonFiction/blob/master/marcslim2n3.xsl
British Library British National Bibliography -
http://www.bl.uk/bibliographic/datafree.html - data model
documented, but no code available
Libris.se - some notes in various presentations/blogposts (e.g.
http://dc2008.de/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/malmsten.pdf) but can't
find explicit transformation
Hungarian National library -
http://thedatahub.org/dataset/hungarian-national-library-catalog and
http://nektar.oszk.hu/wiki/Semantic_web#Implementation - some
information on ontologies used but no code or explicit
transformation (not 100% sure this is from MARC)
Talis - implemented in several live catalogues including
http://catalogue.library.manchester.ac.uk/ - no documentation or
code afaik although some notes in
MAB transformation
HBZ - some of the transformation documented at
https://wiki1.hbz-nrw.de/display/SEM/Converting+the+Open+Data+from+the+hbz+to+BIBO, don't think any code
published?
Would be really helpful if more projects published their
transformations (or someone told me where to look!)

A few of the code4lib talk proposals mention projects that have or
will transform MARC records into RDF. If any of you have
documentation and/or examples of this, I would be very interested
to see them, even if they are "under construction."
Thanks,
