Hi Joe,

 

This requires ontology fix for bf:seriesStatement in the bf:Instance.  Instead of using bf:seriesStatement "African series", "Department of State publication" ; … we can introduce something like the following:

bf:seriesStatement [ a bf:SeriesStatement;

            rdfs:label "Department of State publication";

            bf:SeriesEnumeration "7902" ],

        [ a bf:SeriesStatement;

            rdfs:label "African series";

            bf:SeriesEnumeration "43" ];

 

 

We change the expected value for the property seriesStatement from literal to class SeriesStatement.  We can also introduce the class SeriesEnumeration as a subclass of SeriesStatement.

 

Attached is the OCLC MARC converted to BIBFRAME 2.0 and serialized in turtle format.

 

I will address hasSeries in bf:Work in a separate message. The attached file doesn’t make any change to hasSeries in bf:Work.

 

Thanks!

When a title is issued in multiple series, BIBFRAME does not have a way to associate each series with its numbering.  For example, looking at OCLC #45898, as converted by the LC program, we find the following.

 

BIBFRAME Work

 

    bf:hasSeries <http://lib.washington.edu/ld/test/99130299090001452#Work830-36>,

        <http://lib.washington.edu/ld/test/99130299090001452#Work830-37> ;

   

    bf:seriesEnumeration "43",

        "7902" ;

 

 

BIBFRAME Instance

 

    bf:seriesEnumeration "43",

        "7902." ;

 

    bf:seriesStatement "African series",

        "Department of State publication" ;

 

In neither the Work nor the Instance can enumeration be associated with its series for the purpose of search or display.  This is a significant step back from current practice.
