Know & Go: Linked Data and MARC21: Transition to BIBFRAME

 Registration is closed for this event
Although BIBFRAME is still in development and much remains to be decided, one thing is for certain: the standard will use Linked Data. One thing libraries can do to prepare for the arrival of BIBFRAME is to add linked-data URIs to their current MARC21 records. This Know and Go will review linked data concepts, distinguish between different types of URIs, demonstrate one method of adding URIs to MARC records, and briefly discuss possible workflows.
