bibliotek-o: a BIBFRAME Extension Ontology

bibliotek-o is an ontology framework for modeling bibliographic metadata. It includes:

• The bibliotek-o extension ontology, which defines additions and modifications to BIBFRAME and is intended as a supplement to the core BIBFRAME ontology.
• A set of ontology fragments (including BIBFRAME) intended for use with the bibliotek-o extension.
• A data model and application profile - i.e., a set of recommended models and patterns for implementing BIBFRAME, bibliotek-o and external ontologies.

This site hosts the bibliotek-o ontology. The current version of the ontology (Version 1.1.0) is available in HTML and RDF/XML OWL via content negotiation from http://bibliotek-o.org/ontology/ (HTML) and http://bibliotek-o.org/ontology.owl (OWL). The previous version of the ontology (Version 1.0.1) is available from http://bibliotek-o.org/1.0/ontology/ (HTML) and http://bibliotek-o.org/1.0/ontology.owl (OWL).

Additional resources:

• The bibliotek-o github repository
• A diagrammatic overview of the bibliotek-o application profile with an index of terms.
• bibliotek-o documentation on the Linked Data for Production project pages.

bibliotek-o is a joint product of the Linked Data for Libraries (LD4L) Labs and Linked Data for Production (LD4P) projects.
