Hello Asaf,

There's a meeting up in Baltimore to get input on the new "Bibliographic Framework" and linked data.

Can you make time to attend? If not, would you pass this on to the WikiData / WikiLovesLibraries people who could make some useful suggestions?

(Sometimes I think that "CatalogWiki" would be a lot easier ...)

Good afternoon, Bibliographic Framework Community:

NISO will be hosting an in-person meeting in Baltimore on April 15-16 to =
engage the public conversation on the development of a public =
bibliographic ecosystem development roadmap. This un-conference-style =
gathering will be used to elicit and prioritize themes for greater =
discussion over the coming months.  The meeting will begin at 10:00 am =
on Monday and end at 3:30 on Tuesday and will be held at the Tremont =
Grand Hotel (222 St Paul St  Baltimore, MD 21202 (410) 727-2222) in =
downtown Baltimore.  It will be a free and open meeting, although space =
is limited to only 75 attendees.  A live stream will be broadcast, as =
well as forums for engaging and gathering input from virtual =
participants.  Logistic details as well as details on how to participate =
virtually will be posted to this list as well as the NISO page for this =
project: http://www.niso.org/topics/tl/BibliographicRoadmap/

Prior to the meeting a discussion paper will be circulated, which will =
be developed on a wiki or open document format.  Again, details on how =
to contribute to that document will be posted to this list (and others).=20=


Please RSVP to the event using the in-person event survey. =
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/N68RTN8

In addition, many of you have requested that NISO host a meeting at the =
ALA Annual conference in late June.  We have also put in a room request =
to the American Library Association to host a meeting of interested =
parties to continue the conversation related to the project during ALA's =
Annual conference in Chicago. We have requested a meeting room on =
Monday, July 1 in the afternoon.  Once that date/time is set by ALA, we =
will post information about it here and distribute it publicly through =
various channels.

If you have any questions, please email them to me or Nettie, =
nlagace@niso.org

With kindest regards,

Todd
