L'article de 2023 de Jeff Edmunds, " Must Die", soutenant que BIBFRAME n'est pas la voie à suivre pour la description bibliographique est désormais traduit en français:

"Il faut en finir avec BIBFRAME"

@edsu At #elag2019, we already did hands-on bootcamp on creating #LOUD from the #Bibframe works dataset, indexing it and using it e.g. with #Openrefine. Slides: hbz.github.io/elag2019-bootcam repo: github.com/hbz/elag2019-bootca I haven't heard of any new Bibframe work bulk download since, though. @thatandromeda @hochstenbach

BIBFRAME Must Die
by Jeff Edmunds

👉 October 15, 2023 marks the 21st anniversary of Roy Tennant's article "MARC Must Die." With a nod to #MARC21, this article argues that #BIBFRAME is not the way forward for bibliographic description and offers five reasons why.

When I was trying to debug the #LibraryOfCongress #BIBFRAME editor, MARVA, I discovered these gems in the commit log.

We are all doomed.

Problems with #BIBFRAME continued:

- It depends on a massive amount of library infrastructure and workflows that don't exist yet.

- If it ever does happen, it will rely on search engines to make catalogues discoverable in search results, which means that libraries are allowing big companies like Google to know what books you're checking out. This is a huge breach of librarians' professional ethics. (See Shayna Pekala, "Privacy and User Experience in 21st Century Library Discovery", 2017).

Gonna nerd out on library stuff here — you've been warned.

My hot take on #BIBFRAME is that it's never happening. It's been in the pipes for over ten years now, and they've done some amazing things in that time.

But:
- The cataloguing software doesn't support it.
- There are no editors (I spent all day trying to run the one made by #LibraryOfCongress and it won't go. Their readme is useless.)

Et voilà, on veut repenser le catalogue pour qu'il soit plus nativement numérique et manipulable par des machines et "dans l’ensemble, GPT est capable de cataloguer une monographie en MARC (les essais en RDA ou BibFrame ont échoué)" bbf.enssib.fr/tour-d-horizon/8 (bon, en vrai il y a certainement des explications, comme la question des jeux d'entraînement disproportionnés, la différence entre format de notice et modèle conceptuel sous-jacent, etc.) #marc #rda #bibframe #gpt #transitionbibliographique

Réunion 2023 du Puc (Permanent UNIMARC Committee) : que devient le format #unimarc ?
La France est le seul pays à avoir fait des propositions d’évolution pour échanger des données avec le modèle #frbr puis IFLA-LRM
La tendance de fond est plutôt celle d’une sortie des formats MARC vers #bibframe vu dans nombre de pays comme le successeur du MARC

Getting ready to join my #ld4 Rare Materials Affinity Group colleagues for A community developed BIBFRAME profile for the description of Rare Books. The session (11am ET) will be live-streamed and recorded on LD4’s YouTube channel! #LinkedData #ld4_2023 #LD4_23 #RareBooks #bibframe

Dropping in on the Marva demo at . Enjoying the presenter walk-through; also getting a bit concerned that BIBFRAME seems still too tightly coupled to RDF than is probably good for general cataloging. (For instance, it looks from the example that author ordering has no built-in support, like it has in VIVO or Wikidata, and as a result the way creators and contributors are recorded for works seems to be clunkier than it should be)

Will someone let me know when it's time for me to understand #BIBFRAME?
