Linked open data remains very much a work in progress, and much of the progress has taken place within the domain of the cultural heritage institutions: libraries, archives, and museums.
There is no question that the structure of linked data, and the machine inferencing it supports, shows great promise for discoverability. What will be the 'killer app' that breaks linked open data out to the wider world and accelerates its uptake? Perhaps it will be a project described in this volume.
Content covered includes:
a very simple description of linked data, summing up its promises and challenges
a survey of the use of linked data in significant projects across the cultural heritage domain, including Europeana and the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA)
practical discussion of migrating a catalogue from a MARC environment to one of linked data and the possibilities that open up in terms of the broader scholarly community
reviewing and reimagining library thesauri, metadata schemas, and information discovery, to look at how controlled vocabularies integrate library practice with linked data
an examination of the role of authority control, identifiers and vocabularies, including use of the Web Ontology Language (OWL) and the SPARQL query language
Carol Jean Godby describes OCLC's experiments with Schema.org as the foundation for a model of library resource description expressed as linked data
the development of the Bibliographic Framework Initiative (BIBFRAME) data model and a description of the fundamental differences between MARC and BIBFRAME.
Readership: This survey of the cultural heritage linked data landscape will be a key resource for metadata practitioners and researchers within all cultural heritage contexts and all students and academics within the information science and digital humanities fields.
