Interopérabilité de l'information bibliographique et muséologiquePatrick Le Boeuf
Bibliothèques et musées sont des institutions de mémoire, ce qui les rapproche, mais ces institutions ont également des spécificités qui les distinguent : les collections muséales consistent essentiellement en objets uniques, tandis que les bibliothèques mettent l'accent sur la notion plus abstraite de publications dont de multiples établissements, voire un seul et même établissement, peuvent posséder des exemplaires réputés "identiques". Néanmoins, il y a suffisamment de points communs entre ces deux catégories d'institutions patrimoniales pour qu'il vaille la peine d'assurer l'interopérabilité des descriptions qu'elles produisent de leurs collections. Historiquement, toutefois, bibliothèques et musées ont d'abord développé séparément leurs propres modèles conceptuels, pour ne les faire converger qu'à partir de 2003. L'intervention présente les grands principes qui ont présidé au développement du CIDOC CRM, modèle conceptuel de l'information muséologique, et de FRBROO, extension du CIDOC CRM qui reformule le modèle FRBR de l'information bibliographique, et donne un très rapide tour d'horizon de quelques utilisations concrètes de ces deux modèles dans le domaine des humanités numériques.

Paper presented at the 12th International Conference on Digital Preservation, November 2-6, 2015. University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Abstract:
The National Library of France (BnF) has recently implemented a new module for its Scalable Preservation and Archiving Repository (SPAR) to set up preservation strategies based on formats, agents, workflows, tools and tests, and managed as reference packages in the Archive. This module aims to fulfill an objective: for SPAR to be fully self-documented. Formats, agents and workflows are formally described and preserved along with the Information packages in which such elements are involved. Although this was a feature that was included from the beginnings of SPAR, the new Preservation Planning module aims to provide a tool that can more easily build these reference packages and that will more closely involve domain experts and the IT department in the processes of preservation planning. But the main innovation lies in the documentation of decisions that directed their selection as standards in SPAR: test data are now preserved as a new kind of reference package.

Presentation by Clément Oury (ISSN International Centre) for a breakout session dedicated to serials and other continuing resources during the IFLA Satellite conference “RDA in the wider world”, OCLC headquarters, Dublin (Ohio, USA), August 11th, 2016
This presentation was provided by Regina Reynolds of The Library of Congress, Françoise Pelle of The ISSN International Center, Karen Coombs of The OCLC Developer Network, and Ed Pentz of CrossRef, during the NISO Webinar "The Case of the Disappearing Journal: Solving the Title Transfer and Online Display Mystery" which was held on November 10, 2010.
Thanks to digitization, today more than 55 million objects from the collections of Europe's libraries, archives and museums are available online to explore and reuse via Europe's digital library, Europeana. This talk will introduce some of the main activities, datasets and tools in the digitization of cultural heritage. The main focus will be on the Europeana Newspapers collection, a public domain licensed dataset of roughly 12 million pages of historic newspapers, and the possibilities and challenges in analyzing such large and heterogeneous textual resources with common NLP and machine learning tools.

Musica migrans - Topic Maps portal about the migration paths of Eastern Europ...Lutz Maicher
The goal of the historical research project Musica migrans is to capture the migration and travel paths of 19th century German speaking musicians in the countries of Eastern Europe. The main focus is on gathering information about lesser known musicians of this epoch. The goal is to reveal all the hitherto uncharted relationships between people, places and institutions, collect them together in a topic map, present them in a timeline, and thereby gain new insights into the history of these communities and schools of practice.
In the first stage, 25 researchers from Eastern Europe are collecting information on 1,250 musicians using a Topic Maps-based colloborative web application. For each musician information from the following categories is collected: names in different languages, dates and places of birth and death, nationality, places of study and work, and all (known) performances and references. Due to the subject-centricity of the knowledge model, all co-occurrences of two different persons (at the same point) will be gathered at one topic and hidden relationships between the musicians will come to the surface.
The portal is implemented in PHP using the (extended) QuaaxTM engine and uses AJAX technologies to provide a rich user experience. The requirements of the portal required the extension of the engine with features such as a full-text index and and XTM parser/serialiser. A web service interface allows the integration of the portal information into other applications by requesting Topic Maps fragments.
The portal was first released in January 2008 and a production version is planned for March 2008. This presentation describes the background to the project, the reasons why Topic Maps was chosen as the underlying technology, and the architecture of the portal itself, which can serve as a model for similar activities in the field of cultural heritage.

The Rolex Learning Center at EPFL: a new building for a new vision in collect...Thomas Guignard
The reunification of 10 faculty libraries inside the new Rolex Learning Center at EPFL was a perfect opportunity to rethink which collections should be put forward in an environment that is organized primarly around the working and living space of the users. "Collection development" has shifted from a simple selection of content added to collections to a selection of the best way of access to relevent content. Electronic books allow on-demand access in an even more cost and ressource-efficient way. We discuss how the EPFL Library is implementing its e-books collection to allow for on-demand rental or buying of titles.

The ISSN International Centre and its Network launched the Directory of Open Access Scholarly Resources in 2013. ROAD is a free service that received a grant from the Communication and Information Sector of UNESCO at its inception. It is now included in the ISSN portal and it provides metadata related to 5 types of multidisciplinary, open access resources, i.e. journals, monographic series, scholarly blogs, academic repositories and conferences proceedings. In 2021, ROAD selection criteria were revised to tighten up inclusion in the service and to counter some improprieties. Beyond the issue of OA scholarly resources and their selection, this presentation is the opportunity to learn more about the ISSN Network and especially about ISSN Ireland which is hosted by the National Library of Ireland.
This NASIG session held May 19th, 2021 started with a discussion about the improvements made in the sixth version of the ISSN standard, published in October 2020, by comparing it with the previous version dated October 2017. Then, the speaker referred to statistics published by the ISSN International Center in its annual report and on its official website to identify trends in the production of serial publications. A presentation of the ISSN Portal and its services followed with a special focus on the JASPER project developed in collaboration with four partners. Finally, the ISSN International Center’s 2020-2024 strategy was detailed and a review of achievements since 2015 was provided.

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, defines 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). They are a call for action by all countries to build a global partnership to end poverty, improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth. Among these goals, two are particularly relevant to JASPER, a joint project involving the Directory of Open Access Journals, Keepers Registry, CLOCKSS, Internet Archive and Public Knowledge Project. JASPER, standing for Journals preserved, aims at supplying various archiving options to non-APC OA journals that are at risk of vanishing from the web. JASPER is thus in line with SDG 11 that includes a specific action regarding the protection of world’s cultural (and scientific) heritage. JASPER is also in line with SDG that promotes international cooperation on and access to science, technology and innovation. The presentation is based on statistics from Keepers Registry and shows the extent of the task ahead to preserve the scientific record and hence scientific research itself.
The ISSN International Centre participated in CISPC 2021 webinar about Sustainable development goals and scholarly communications. This one-hour panel discussion’s goal was to find out why (and how) libraries, research bodies and publishers alike should embrace the UN’s sustainable development goals to benefit the global community.

Le réseau ISSN (International Standard Serial Number), qui rassemble 93 pays, est coordonné par le Centre international de l’ISSN, organisation intergouvernementale située à Paris et fondée par un traité signé entre l’UNESCO et la France.
Depuis plus de quarante-cinq ans, ce Centre est l’autorité d'enregistrement officiellement agréée pour la gestion et la mise en œuvre de la numérotation internationale normalisée des publications en série.
Le Centre international de l'ISSN et son réseau ont développé un ensemble d’outils et de services d'information pour tracer l'évolution des publications en série dans le monde, depuis leur publication jusqu’à leur conservation à long terme.
La présentation montre l’importance et la pertinence du réseau ISSN et de ses outils aujourd’hui.
The ISSN Register was created by UNESCO and France in the 1970s to index and identify analogue and digital serial publications, i.e. journals, newspapers, magazines, and later, websites and databases worldwide to foster scientific cooperation at a time of Cold War between the Western and Soviet blocs. The technology available at that time did not allow wide access to this database which was made available to Member States and subscribers. Despite the emergence of the internet and the world wide web and the web 2.0, this situation continued until 2013, when the ROAD database of open access scientific resources was made available on the web. This movement to free up ISSN data has accelerated under the impetus of a new management and thanks to the support of member countries, leading to the opening of the ISSN Portal in 2018. Today, the ISSN Portal offers a suite of services to libraries, publishers and the information industry that aims to trace as accurately as possible the trajectory of serial publications from their birth to their long-term preservation. This presentation is intended to provide an overview of the progress made since the opening of ROAD in 2013 and an outline of the 2024 strategy.

The origins of PRESSOO
FRBR, CIDOC-CRM and FRBROO
PRESSoo – Clément Oury – Meeting at Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Frankfurt, 8th December 2015
4. 4
The origins: FRBROO
- FRBR: a model for libraries (1998)
• Identify minimum functional requirements of bibliographic data
• Ensure that they meet user requirements
• Outcome: a model for bibliographic information: Work, Expression,
Manifestation, Item
- CIDOC-CRM: Conceptual Reference Model for museums (1998,
now ISO 21127:2006)
• An ontology for very diverse objects of cultural heritage
• Object-oriented
• Objective: facilitate exchange of information from heterogeneous sources
and improve resources discoverability
PRESSoo – Clément Oury – Meeting at Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Frankfurt, 8th December 2015
5. 5
FRBROO: an extension of CIDOC-CRM
- 2000: first discussions on harmonisation of both models
(European Library Automation Group, Paris)
- 2003: International WG on FRBR-CIDOC harmonisation
• Expressing FRBR with concepts, tools, mechanisms and notation
conventions from CIDOC CRM
• Aligning (or even merging) the two object-oriented models
- Successive versions of FRBROO
• Version 1.0: 2010
• Currently 2.2 (to encompass FRAD and FRSAD models)
- Original FRBR is now FRBRER (to be replaced by FRBR-LRM)
PRESSoo – Clément Oury – Meeting at Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Frankfurt, 8th December 2015
7. 7
Why PRESSOO?
- A specialized and detailed model was needed to represent serials and
ongoing resources
• “features” (frequency, medium...)
• changes that affect them over the time (continuations, absorptions, splits...)
• relationships they can have with other serials (linguistic editions...)
- Provide a linked-data friendly data model
• To improve interoperability with other datasets
- PRESSOO for the ISSN registry
• Prepare the publication of (a subpart of) the registry in the LOD
• Deal with the differences of description from various national centres (e.g. “date of
publication”)
• Mapping of NCs’ MARC records to PRESSOO may be customized according to
national practices
PRESSoo – Clément Oury – Meeting at Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Frankfurt, 8th December 2015
8. 8
PRESSOO: an extension of FRBROO
- PRESSOO: “FRBROO for serials and other continuing
resources”
• “An ontology which aims to represent the underlying semantics of
bibliographic information about continuing resources, and more
specifically about periodicals”
- FRBROO chosen as reference standard
• For its object-oriented approach: convenient for linked data
• As it allow interoperability with other cultural fields (as a CIDOC-CRM
extension)
• Because FRBRER was not perfectly adapted for serials
PRESSoo – Clément Oury – Meeting at Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Frankfurt, 8th December 2015
9. 9
Shortcomings of FRBRER
- FRBR Final Report, 1998:
• “Certain aspects of the model merit more detailed examination. (…) In
particular, the notion of “seriality” and the dynamic nature of entities recorded in
digital formats merit further analysis”.
- FRBRER: rigidly hierarchical (WEMI structure): lack of flexibility
• In FRBRER, the WORK entity is defined as a “distinct intellectual or artistic
creation”
• Various editions of a serial are seen as so many EXPRESSIONS (e.g. Western
and eastern editions of The Wall Street Journal)
• Some situations create severe inconsistencies
• N.B.: this approach is now disregarded in FRBR-LRM
PRESSoo – Clément Oury – Meeting at Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Frankfurt, 8th December 2015
10. 10
Example of a complex but frequent enough case
PRESSoo – Clément Oury – Meeting at Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Frankfurt, 8th December 2015
11. 11
PRESSOO as FRBROO-based model
- FRBROO model defines a “serial work” class (F 18)
• Each serial is regarded as a WORK, including all local, linguistic, etc. editions
• By ignoring the Expression and Manifestation entities, FRBROO definitively
circumvents the logical inconsistencies mentioned earlier
- FRBROO and of CIDOC-CRM models are able to express the
dynamic nature of serials
• or at least, to provide a framework for creating additional classes and
properties which express this “dynamic nature”
• E.g,: the CIDOC-CRM classes “E 29 Design or Procedure” that accounts for
planned behaviours
PRESSoo – Clément Oury – Meeting at Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Frankfurt, 8th December 2015

Some aspects of FRBROO
- F1 Work: a sum of concepts
- F2 Expression: a sum of signs
- 3 meanings for "Work":
• all concepts conveyed by each
individual Expression:
F14 Individual Work
• all concepts common to various
Expressions and serving to identify
“bibliographic families”:
F15 Complex Work
• the concept of adding something to
Expressions (e.g. by aggregating
them):
F16 Container Work

- April 2012: issues of FRBR serial description discussed «in an ISSN
perspective» during a technical meeting in Paris
- January-March 2013: 7 meetings
• Examination of the semantics of each single data element in the ISSN Manual
• Can this semantics be expressed using existing FRBROO and CIDOC CRM classes and
properties?
• If not, then declare specific classes and properties
- PRESSOO = sum of specific classes and properties declared through that
process
• A mapping from the ISSN data elements to PRESSOO is provided in the model
- April 2014: 0.5 version submitted to IFLA FRBR review group
- June 2014: amended version (endorsed by the FRBR RG) published as 1.0
version

Main features of PRESSOO
Or: “A good serial is a dead serial”
PRESSoo – Clément Oury – Meeting at Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Frankfurt, 8th December 2015

PRESSOO: key principles
- Descriptive information of a serial makes statements about the
past and assumptions about the future
• “There is in general no single expression or manifestation representing a
complete serial work, unless the serial work is ended” (FRBROO)
• “The sum (at a given point of time) of all the expressions of all past issues
published so far does not represent the serial work, but can be thought as a
“component” of a virtual complete expression that does not exist yet”
(PRESSOO)
- PRESSOO models the many changes that are likely to occur over
time in the life of a serial
• What is actually described is a set of issuing rules (publication plan)

Implementing PRESSOO
- ROAD, Directory of open access scholarly resources
• Bibliographic records of journals, book series, scholarly blogs,
conference proceedings, repositories
• Subset of ISSN registry
• Dump accessible under CC-BY-NC license
- PRESSOO model used for the ROAD database RDF
serialization
• Applied to 13 000+ ISSN records
• Home-made ROAD ontology for some ISSN record specificities (title
proper, variant title, etc.)
