Abstract

ABSTRACT The MARC format ushered in the age of automation for libraries. However, the standard is dated. The Library of Congress began developing BIBFRAME, a linked data ontology, five years ago to supplant this aging standard. BIBFRAME isn't merely a replacement for MARC; it is the dawn of a new age of automation. Coupled with improved search engines and the open access movement, linked data can revolutionize the way all libraries do business. This article provides an overview of linked data technologies, surveys the early results of a linked data initiative, and argues for the adoption of this technology in law libraries.

共同强大:在法律图书馆中拥抱谷歌和关联数据

摘要MARC格式开创了图书馆自动化的时代。然而，该标准已过时。五年前，美国国会图书馆开始开发BIBFRAME，一种链接的数据本体，以取代这一老化的标准。BIBFRAME不仅仅是MARC的替代品；这是自动化新时代的曙光。再加上改进的搜索引擎和开放访问运动，链接数据可以彻底改变所有图书馆的业务方式。本文概述了关联数据技术，调查了关联数据倡议的早期结果，并主张在法律图书馆中采用这一技术。
