The Cultural Linked Data Backbone

•
•
Richard Wallis
Richard Wallis

The presentation discusses OCLC's efforts to create a cultural linked data backbone by connecting library data through open linked data standards. It provides examples of existing linked data projects like VIAF, Dewey, and WorldCat and outlines OCLC's work to publish 270 million WorldCat resources as linked open data using the Schema.org vocabulary. The presentation argues that linking library data in this way allows the world's libraries to be more connected on the web.
