As follow-up to discussion on the use of the Bib-2 Attribute Set at the October 2001 meeting on the Bath Profile / ZIG at Boston Spa, Lennie Stovel and I have prepared a document mapping the basic bibliographic searches, as defined in Functional Area A of the Bath Profile to search attributes of the Bib-2 Attribute Set (OID: 1.2.840.100003.3.18). This document is posted on the web at: http://www.nlc-bnc.ca/iso/z3950/bib-2_in_bath_1_0.pdf Bib-2 is designed for use when searching bibliographic databases containing description of a wide range of bibliographic materials, created according to accepted cataloguing rules such as the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules. It was formulated according to the Z39.50 Attribute Architecture and uses attributes from more general attribute sets, such as the Cross-Domain Attribute Set and the Utility Attribute Set. In addition, specific attributes have been defined in the Bib-2 Attribute Set to support the searching of bibliographic databases. We'll be discussing this at the ZIG / Bath meetings next week at OCLC in Dublin, Ohio. For those people participating in the development of the Bath profile who are not following the ZIG list, you can find more information on the Bib-2 Attribute Set at http http://www.nlc-bnc.ca/iso/z3950/bib-2_home.htm Barb ______________________ Barbara Shuh Library Network Specialist National Library of Canada Phone: (613) 995-1701 Fax: (613) 943-1939 E-mail: barbara.shuh@nlc-bnc.ca
