International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions • Universal Bibliographic Control (UBC) • Used world-wide • RDF representations developed since 2009 • Open Metadata Registry used for RDF element sets and value vocabularies
Current status of vocabularies * Partial, under construction
Maps • Maps based on “alignments” • Often kinda-sameAs • Mostly out-of-date • Synchronization between “the Standard” and the RDF representation • Contextual documentation vs encapsulated semantics • Expense? • Protocols between different maintenance organizations difficult to develop
