Datenbanken und Standards
Mit der digitalen Erschließung von Buch- und Medienbeständen sind für
Nutzer/innen innerhalb kurzer Zeit völlig neue Formen des Umgangs bei der
Literatursuche möglich geworden: Das Recherchieren über das Web ist ebenso
selbstverständlich geworden wie ausgefeilte Suchfunktionen und die Einbeziehung
weltweiter Bestände.
Auf den ersten Blick wächst damit auch die Bedeutung von IT für den bibliothekarischen
Bereich. Datenbanken organisieren das Wissen und ausgefeilte Algorithmen
stehen hinter einfachen Suchanfragen. Auf den zweiten Blick ist es aber
immer der Mensch, der Begriffe zuordnet und vergibt, der intellektuelle
Zusammenhänge herstellt. Damit diese Zusammenhänge und das dahinter
verborgene Wissen von einer Maschine sinnvoll genutzt werden kann, bedarf
es Standards, speziell hinsichtlich der Datenbanken, aber auch inhaltlich
in Bezug auf die Metadaten: kontrollierte Vokabulare, Normdateiten etc.
sind hier die Schlagworte.

CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CRM)
The CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CRM) provides definitions and a formal
structure for describing the implicit and explicit concepts and relationships
used in cultural heritage documentation. The CIDOC CRM is intended to promote
a shared understanding of cultural heritage information by providing a
common and extensible semantic framework that any cultural heritage information
can be mapped to. It is intended to be a common language for domain experts
and implementers to formulate requirements for information systems and
to serve as a guide for good practice of conceptual modelling. In this
way, it can provide the "semantic
glue" needed to mediate between different sources of cultural heritage
information, such as that published by museums, libraries and archives.
The CIDOC CRM is the culmination of over 10 years work by the CIDOC Documentation
Standards Working Group and CIDOC CRM SIG which are working groups of CIDOC.
Since 9/12/2006 it is official standard ISO 21127:2006.
IFLA mit
IFLA-CDNL Alliance for Bibliographic
Standards (ICABS)
The focus of the alliance is strategic and offers a practical way to improve
international coordination and to steer developments in these key areas.
The alliance aims to maintain, promote, and harmonize existing standards
and concepts related to bibliographic and resource control, to develop strategies
for bibliographic and resource control, and to advance understanding of issues
related to long-term archiving of electronic resources, including the promotion
of new and recommended conventions for such archiving.
IFLA Cataloguing Section
FRBR Review Group
In 1997 the Standing Committee of the IFLA Section on Cataloguing approved
the FRBR model. In 2002 the IFLA Cataloguing Section formed a Working Group
on FRBR in order to provide a focal point within IFLA for the ongoing support
and development of the conceptual model and to encourage the use of FRBR
as a reference model for the bibliographic universe. The working group created
the FRBR electronic discussion list, compiled the first edition of the FRBR
bibliography, and launched the present Web site. In 2003 the Working Group
was transformed into the FRBR Review Group. During 2003-2004 a Working Group
on Continuing Resources worked on issues stemming from the application of
the FRBR model to continuing resources; after the group disbanded, these
issues were referred to the Working Group on Aggregates formed in 2005.
