ALCTS webinar: ArtFrame: Extending Library Ontologies for Works of Art
Date: Wednesday, April 4, 2018
All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 am Pacific, noon Mountain, 1 pm Central, and 2 pm Eastern time.
This is the fourth session of a six-part series. View the other sessions in this series.
This series of six webinars builds on the introductory series From MARC to BIBFRAME: Linked Data on the Ground, which was presented in fall 2016 and is now available free of charge. It describes the continuing BIBFRAME initiatives taking place at the Library of Congress as well as within the broader information community.
Description: ArtFrame, led by Columbia University Libraries, is a domain-specific sub-project of Linked Data for Production (LD4P), a Mellon-funded cross-institutional effort aimed at piloting the production of linked data in libraries. The ArtFrame vocabulary is an extension of BIBFRAME and LD4P/LD4L-Lab's bibliotek-o ontologies to describe works of art (both two-dimensional and three-dimensional) natively as linked data. This Webinar will discuss the work completed by Columbia staff and the ArtFrame Extension Group, including use cases , modeling areas, tools, outcomes, and lessons learned.
Learning outcomes:
• Introduce the Linked Data for Production (LD4P) project
• Introduce the ArtFrame domain-specific sub-project
• Review existing descriptive cataloging standards for works of art
• Review use cases for describing art objects as linked data within a library environment
• Review and outline the modeling areas for ontology development to describe art objects and their intrinsic and extrinsic properties
• Review tools that were used throughout the project
• Review outcomes of the project and lessons learned
Who should attend? Art librarians, metadata librarians, catalogers, and catalog librarians
