RE: An initial proposal for bib.schema.org

Thanks for the great work here.

 

Aren’t we talking about bibliographic types?

 

I agree with Jeff to base our discussions on what bibliographic types exist currently (as represented in WorldCat):

·         All Formats (2,378,651)

·          Article (1144176)

o     Chapter (256440)

o     Downloadable article (20042)

·          Book (573754)

o     Print book (389143)

o     eBook (120648)

o     Thesis/dissertation (44591)

o     Microform (17529)

o     Continually updated resource (2532)

o     Large print (166)

o     Braille Book (90)

·          Archival material (229358)

o     Downloadable archival material (212016)

·          Image (58763)

·          Video (32749)

o     VHS (13069)

o     DVD (12762)

o     Film (3284)

o     eVideo (1722)

o     Bluray (121)

·          Journal, magazine (31275)

o     eJournal/eMagazine (4222)

·          Visual material (22154)

o     Downloadable visual material (18795)

·          Computer file (20600)

·          Audiobook (11329)

o     Cassette (8940)

·          Music (5003)

o     Cassette (1931)

o     LP (1814)

o     CD (819)

o     eMusic (24)

·          Object (2444)

·          Map (1024)

o     eMap (124)

·          Kit (943)

·          Internet resource (921)

o     Website (891)

o     Downloadable image (30)

·          Sound recording (659)

·          Interactive multimedia (429)

·          Musical score (362)

o     Downloadable musical score (10)

·          Game (298)

·          Toy (99)

·          Newspaper (55)

o     eNewspaper (7)

Note that several of these (for example, object) typically have subsets within the context of the type.  

 

Conduct a filtered search in WorldCat using the keyword “equipment” and the type filter “object” and see what you retrieve.

 

Talk to you soon; take care.

Has the archives section of this proposal already had a larger discussion somewhere?

Hi all,

 

A few weeks back we discussed how this group or some of its members could participate as a bibliographic domain group to propose and review a bibliographic extension to schema.org with the current working name of bib.schema.org.

 

Since then I have been liaising with Dan Brickley and others in the main Schema.org group who have been working to establish the hosting software that enables the extension capability.  This work is now close to being ready for release.  Dan has indicated that this provides an excellent opportunity for a bibliographic extension to be one of, if not the first, enabled and released in this way.  In preparation for this, Dan Scott and I have put together a candidate set of types and properties that could constitute an initial bib extension release, which this email introduces.

 

There are many potential candidates for new/enhanced types and properties which the finessing and accepting of which would need to be the subject of some in depth discussion within this group.  To take advantage of the opportunity to release along with the capability release, however, we need to agree a starting subset fairly quickly.  To that end Dan and I have drawn up this initial (1.0) proposal consisting of what we believe to be things that are fairly noncontroversial. 

 

I list the proposed types and properties below with links to their representation in a development version of the Schema.org site.  They are in three independent groups of proposals, for general bibliographic markup; some helpful things for the physical structure of archives & basic collections; and for comics.  

 

We can accept/reject either individual types and properties, or a whole group, because we need to explore things in more depth and defer things to a later release.  I would hope though that fairly quickly we could come to at least a subset of these as an initial release.

 

A reminder that Dan Brickley is still working on the software capable of handling extensions so please view the content more than how it currently displays.
