BIBFRAME July 2024 Update Forum

The BIBFRAME Update Forum in January 2024 highlighted the implementation of BIBFRAME by ExLibris and OCLC, and the Share Family linked data ecosystem, including Share-VDE. The presentation emphasized the importance of standard BIBFRAME for community interoperability and data curation. The Library of Congress is incorporating more scripts in bibliographic data regarding conversions from MARC to BIBFRAME and Scriptshifter, an automated tool developed by Library of Congress that can convert over 90 non-latin scripts into latin script following the LC/ALA guidelines. See this presentation: Scriptshifter: Enhancing Library Metadata and Discovery 

The BIBFRAME Update Forum held on 1 July 2024 was meant to discuss these changes.
