Freedom is somewhat more concrete than liberty, I think. "The freedom to do X", "freedom of Y". I see liberty more as an abstract concept. But I might be wrong. I don't think the distinction between these two is very useful, but I might be wrong on that as well, because I might not really understand the difference. However, I have yet to find an instance where vrijheid wouldn't be an appropriate translation in Dutch.
