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.

Harvard Project Proposal

• 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.
