We are pleased to announce the second joint conference organized by CERL’s RNB Working Group, in collaboration with the Short Title Catalogue Flanders (STCV) and the Flemish RNB, and hosted by the KBR (Royal Library of Belgium).
This event will explore where Retrospective National Bibliographies (RNBs) meet innovative research and heritage projects, examining how they work together to shape the future of knowledge and preservation.
Key topics include:
• Data Exchange & Interoperability: Opportunities and challenges in exchanging data between catalogues and bibliographies. How does seamless collaboration enhance access and sharing of bibliographic data?
• Encouraging Research Engagement: Strategies to facilitate and promote the use of bibliographical data among researchers. How can we encourage wider collaboration with RNB data in scholarly work?
• Digital Humanities & RNBs: The role of digital tools in RNB data use, including data visualization and showcasing how collaboration in the digital space opens new avenues for research.
• Interlinking Bibliographic Resources: Connecting RNBs with other repositories, such as integrating persistent identifiers and linking to the CERL Thesaurus. How can collaboration between different bibliographic systems create a more connected and comprehensive scholarly network?
