Over the last years, there have been several Linked Open Data projects in libraries. The library community needs one international standard for interchange of bibliographic
metadata based on modern technology. BIBFRAME is what according to the intentions of the Library of Congress shall replace MARC. BIBFRAME has the potential to become more global than MARC21, if libraries using UNIMARC and national MARC formats select BIBFRAME.
It will be important to prepare the implementation of BIBFRAME in Europe. Some countries have taken the lead and other countries are more awaiting. In any case:
we need more visibility of BIBFRAME and to start a process making BIBFRAME more international.
The European BIBFRAME Workshop was discussed at a meeting in Danish Bibliographic Committee and then supported by Nordic Network Group on bibliographic and infrastructure
topics (NNG). The idea was presented at the SWIB 2016 conference (Semantic Web in Libraries) in Bonn.
NNG have set up an Organizer Group, which is supplemented by a representative from the German National Library.
This is not an educational event, so participants are expected to have basic knowledge about BIBFRAME, but do not need to be full aware of technical details.
