Harvard will assess BIBFRAME's effectiveness as a data model for describing moving image materials for research needs, and identify domain-specific extensions to BIBFRAME, as well as vocabularies for description of these materials in a linked data environment.
For questions or comments, please contact Christine Fernsebner Eslao, Metadata Management, Harvard Library: eslao [ at ] fas [ dot ] harvard [ dot ] edu or submit issues via https://github.com/HLITS/LD4L_Film_Ontology
- Extension to BIBFRAME for moving image materials
- BIBFRAME profile for moving images descriptions
- Set of published BIBFRAME descriptions for a variety of moving image resources
- Written evaluation of the project and set of recommendations for future research and development
- Presentation of project findings to appropriate communities.
Analysis/Modeling
- Discussion papers and recommendations
- Ontology extension files
- Application profile and conversion mappings
- Survey of related ontologies and linked data efforts
- Pattern documents for types of moving image resources, extending shared activities model, modeling physical details (durations, defects, sound, color, relationships between works and expressions, item history)
- Ontology file with extension terms
