Dear colleagues, The mapping from the UNIMARC Bibliographic format to the semantic model CIDOC CRM, that was initiated over two years ago as part of the European project named SCULPTEUR, at the initiative of C2RMF (Centre de recherche et de restauration des musées de France, Christian Lahanier), is now finished. This mapping can be of interest for any application that makes use of both the UNIMARC format and the CIDOC CRM model. It needs to be validated by the two communities who originated those significant tools. This is the reason why this message is being sent to: - the CIDOC CRM Special Interest Group, who maintains the CIDOC CRM model; - the FRBR/CRM Harmonization Group; - Fernanda Campos, director of the IFLA UNIMARC Core Activity; - Pat Riva, chair of the FRBR Review Group; - and Judith Kuhagen, chair of the IFLA Cataloguing Section. Please have a look at this mapping, transmit it to the group you chair as you find it appropriate, and to whoever you think could be interested in re-reading it and making suggestions to amend it, and do not hesitate to criticize it; it will not be made publicly available until it has been carefully re-read. It consists of a Word file (introduction) and an Excel file (the mapping properly said), both zipped. With all best wishes, Patrick Le Boeuf
