3. Librariesโฆ Librarians
๏ฑ With their expertise in search, metadata
generation, collection development librarians
should actually be well positioned to
understand and implement linked data.
๏ฑWith developments of Resource Description
& Access (RDA), Functional Requirements for
Bibliographic Records (FRBR), and Functional
Requirements for Authority Data (FRAD)
standards libraries are now in the transition
towards linked data
4. ๏ฑLinked Data is about using the Web to
connect related data that wasn't
previously linked, or using the Web to
lower the barriers to linking data currently
linked using other methods

6. Libraries & Linked data
๏ฑLinked Open Data is a way of publishing structured
data that allows metadata to be connected and
enriched, so that different representations of the
same content can be found, and links made
between related resources
๏ฑ Linked data represents a major opportunity for
libraries to integrate information resources with
the wider web.
๏ฑ It provides a foundation for better data
management, allowing libraries to store, share
and re-use data as needed
