What Is Linked Data, and What Does it Mean for Libraries? ALAO TEDSIG Spring ...Emily Nimsakont
This document provides an overview of Linked Data and what it means for libraries. It defines Linked Data as a method of publishing structured data on the web so it can be interlinked and more useful. Linked Data uses URIs and RDF to make relationships between data explicit. This allows data to be queried and customized in new ways. Examples of Linked Data include DBpedia and Freebase. For libraries, Linked Data could eliminate data silos by breaking down traditional bibliographic records into linked data. This would allow library data to interact more openly on the web. It may change cataloging workflows and require new skills from librarians. However, challenges include needing to develop new software and standards, as well as ensuring reliable data.
