Abstract: The overall changes of BIBFRAME 2.0 vocabulary are manifest in three aspects, namely, the increase of classes & decrease of properties, change of some properties into classes, and the reuse of outer mature vocabularies. The specific changes include the adjustment of core classes, modification of title classes and properties, redefining of event class, change of classes and properties related to role description, increase of administrative metadata, increase of general classes and properties, and increase of carrier description classes and properties. The changes of BIBFRAME 2.0 vocabulary demonstrate library’s deepening understanding and application of the linked data as the latter matures.

Key words: BIBFRAME, Vocabulary, Linked data
