Re: [CODE4LIB] MARC Holdings

Evergreen has Perl code for generating holdings statements from MFHD that we use in the serials module. The core MFHD module could certainly be used directly (with, perhaps, a namespace change), and the serials module code could serve as a guide for how to make use of the MFHD module. The latter

Re: [CODE4LIB] BIBFRAME nesting question

Stuart, I think it goes the other way - every instance of the complete works (aka a new publication of that) is also an instance of some expression of the work of each play. Note that such compilations do not have a good solution (yet?) in the FRBR/FRBR-LRM world. The solution that the original

I'm definitely interested in whatever you have and are willing to share. I'm also interested in whatever language at this point. I'm new to library systems and returning to coding after a bit of a hiatus so I will have to learn the server side scripting language no matter what anyhow.

Re: [CODE4LIB] MARC Holdings

That's a good idea, and it's sort of where I was planning to start. But I hadn't thought to share the specs/tests more widely. If I haven't seen someone else put something out there first, I'll share when I have a chance to put that together and have our serials cataloger check my work. I

Re: [CODE4LIB] MARC Holdings

I've never actually worked with the raw holdings records, and because I assume everyone is just like me, I imagine other's haven't, either. I now working with the summary holdings information as a text string is a nightmare. Maybe you could throw up some "given this, it should produce that" data

Re: [CODE4LIB] MARC Holdings

The MARC libraries cited make it easy to work with MARC in general, but unfortunately the Perl and Ruby versions don't come with any help for the "interesting" problem of transforming Holdings 853s and 863s into human-readablesummary holdings statements (like you'd record in the 866 or 867).

Re: [CODE4LIB] MARC Holdings

Note that if perl isn't your thing there are MARC libraries in several languages - python and ruby at least, probably others I don't remember off the top of my head (since I work in python and ruby, no shade to other people's languages :). https://github.com/edsu/pymarc ,

Re: [CODE4LIB] BIBFRAME nesting question

Thank you all for your input. It is helpful to know that there are no best practices per se but rather that it varies by use case. After starting this thread I also found some of the BF notes documents that also emphasize that there is no official position on things like blank nodes and that BF

Re: [CODE4LIB] BIBFRAME nesting question

Re: [CODE4LIB] BIBFRAME nesting question

Joshua, Yes, as Nate says, those examples on my site are from quite a while ago, and come out of an early MARC -> BFv1 converter. I don't how BF decides what gets a URI vs. what is a blank node (and I find it to be heavy on blank nodes, which may reflect an XML development environment). I do

Re: [CODE4LIB] BIBFRAME nesting question

Okay, thanks all. I will set up the code to split the entities into different files. Is there a rule of thumb for when a Thing needs to be split out into a different file with its own URI vs being a blank node? For instance, maybe blank nodes one level deep are okay but nested ones are not. But I

Re: [CODE4LIB] BIBFRAME nesting question

Just to note, that is a BIBFRAME1 vocab example. You can tell because the namespace is http://bibframe.org/vocab... You could certainly extract them and post them to their own end points, but you have to decide how to make the uris unique in your endpoint area: Karen's had a unique uri for the

Re: [CODE4LIB] BIBFRAME nesting question

The Work is a Thing. The Instance is a Thing. The Item is a Thing. The Agent is a Thing. The subject Nomen is a Thing. The publisher Nomen is a Thing. And so on. Each has (or can have) a URI. They have relationships between them, which can be linked by URIs.

Re: [CODE4LIB] BIBFRAME nesting question

You would definitely want to have separate URIs for each Work, Instance, Item. That way others can point to (re-use) your unique Instances, for example, and say "I have one of those, and here's my Item record for it". -Original Message- From: Code for Libraries

Re: [CODE4LIB] BIBFRAME nesting question

Stephen, I've looked at Karen Coyle's examples in the past. They are extremely helpful for figuring out how to structure the BIBFRAME record, but my question is more about how the BIBFRAME model interfaces with the semantic web as a whole. As you mentioned, Karen's examples, like the LC examples

I guess I am trying to figure out what the well-defined view looks like. I can't find examples that contain Work, Instance, and Item within the same RDF document at the same URI. In fact, the examples section on the LC BIBFRAME 2.0 website is blank, and the links for BIBFRAME 1.0 are all dead. I
