Initiated by the Library of Congress, BIBFRAME provides a foundation for the future of bibliographic description, both on the web, and in the broader networked world. This site presents general information about the project, including presentations, FAQs, and links to working documents. In addition to being a replacement for MARC, BIBFRAME serves as a general model for expressing and connecting bibliographic data. A major focus of the initiative will be to determine a transition path for the MARC 21 formats while preserving a robust data exchange that has supported resource sharing and cataloging cost savings in recent decades.
Som jag sagt tidigare, dags för de svenska biblioteken att börja indexera digitala böcker som faller under public domain! Här finns Z39.50-servrar, bara för biblioteken att hämta poster därifrån!

This list provides a quick overview of the landscape of open-source bibliographic software; both where is has been, but more importantly, where it may yet go.
