This was the result of the joint work of the Kubikat group of libraries that were envisaging a new tool for scholars, researchers and end users as well as for librarians to manage bibliographic resources.

	SVDE team has been working on the procedure to '''fully automate the workflow for receiving updated MARC data''' from all SVDE member institutions. After the initial import of the MARC full catalogues of SVDE libraries done in 2019, the procedures for the ingestion in SVDE of subsequent regular updates of MARC data have been created and constantly refined for processing, enrichment and clustering in SVDE. However, the recent changes to the infrastructure of the system imposed to re-design the module managing delta updates, that will soon be completed.

Created page with " {{DISPLAYTITLE:October 2021}} The new version Share-VDE 2.0 is live at [https://svde.org/ The new version Share-VDE 2.0 is live at [https://svde.org/ https://svde.org] with an enhanced Entity Discovery Portal and Linked Data Management System. The previous version at [https://share-vde.org/ https://share-vde.org/] will be active in parallel to Share-VDE 2.0 until the migration of libraries’ data on the new system will be completed. The load of Share-VDE libraries’ data is being done progressively and currently the new web portal hosts a subset of the data available on the previous version.

If you want to discover the advanced functions of Share-VDE 2.0, the web portal at [https://svde.org/ https://svde.org] is the place to go.

To provide feedback on the new version, report bugs and suggestions reach out through the forum [https://forum.svde.org/ https://forum.svde.org/].

This news has also been published in a dedicated [https://wiki.share-vde.org/w/images/5/5e/Share-VDE_2.0_EN.pdf Share-VDE press release].

An important aspect to underline is that the Share-VDE and Share Family components are supported by the [https://wiki.share-vde.org/w/images/5/54/share_components_EN.pdf LOD Platform technology framework]. Among these components, it’s relevant to mention the services for the authority control, that we have developed based on the analysis carried on by the [[ShareVDE:Members/Share-VDE working groups|Share-VDE working groups]], and the [https://wiki.share-vde.org/w/images/1/1d/Schema_Share_family_tenant.png Share Family tenant infrastructure] that allows configurability and flexibility of the data grouped and presented according to each specific library or library consortia domain needs.

The [https://bit.ly/SVDE-Statement-2021 Share-VDE Statement] has been distributed widely to give context on Share-VDE position in the linked data ecosystem. In light of the work that Share-VDE is carrying on and of its involvement in several international initiatives, the SVDE Advisory Council has approved and published an official statement that is the explanation of position of the initiative in the broader context of Library Linked Open Data.

Several events over the last weeks have marked significant steps for Share-VDE and for knowledge sharing in the library community:

* the NLN – National Libraries Now 2021 conference on 16th – 17th September was a fruitful event where Tiziana Possemato delivered a speech about [https://wiki.share-vde.org/w/images/e/e5/NLNow_2021_Possemato.pdf Experience of International Cooperation: Towards a Collective and Global Catalog of National Bibliographies].
* On the subject of national libraries, a new working group has been formed in Share-VDE and in the Share Family of initiatives dedicated to practical cooperation among institutions managing National Bibliographies. Considering the important presence of several National Libraries in the Share-VDE community and in the broader network of institutions that follow the progress of this initiative and of other Linked Open Data projects, this working group has been launched in order to study and address the needs of National Libraries and institutions that hold National Bibliographies in the framework of a shared entity discovery environment such as the Share Family of initiatives.

If you are interested in this new group, don’t hesitate to contact us at [[Mailto:info@svde.org|info@svde.org]]. The materials of the first meeting are available: agenda and notes [https://bit.ly/SVDE_National-Bib-WG_2021-Sep-01 https://bit.ly/SVDE_National-Bib-WG_2021-Sep-01] and meeting recording [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gcuVrXmEMzzcJJ5MhG7Le1xgHykPSvCO/view National_bibliographies_WG_2021-09-01.mp4].

* The semi-annual SVDE workshop on 20th September was the occasion where the new version of the system was presented. The major achievements are included in the SVDE Workshop agenda [https://bit.ly/SVDE_workshop_2021-Sep-20 https://bit.ly/SVDE_workshop_2021-Sep-20]. Among the workshop materials:

as mentioned above, the new SVDE 2.0 is now live at [https://svde.org/ https://svde.org], you are welcome to have a tour of the beta system (some information about it is available at [https://www.svde.org/about/about-share-vde https://www.svde.org/about/about-share-vde]);
** the recording of the SVDE Workshop can be useful to see a thorough demo of the new system[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ht5_uCJ05-FfZOWtochVtdWL8ol0vKnk/view Share-VDE Workshop September 20 2021.mp4].

* The BIBFRAME Workshop in Europe from September 21st to 23rd engaged a large community of BIBFRAME adopters and professionals working in the transition from MARC to Linked Data using the BIBFRAME model. The first afternoon was focused on implementations (including Share-VDE), the second afternoon on new developments, and the third one on a vast data exchange topic including a panel on RDA/RDF. The presentations and links to the recordings of the sessions are available at [https://2021.bfwe.eu/ https://2021.bfwe.eu/].
