1. Preface

Gallery, library, archive, and museum (i.e. GLAM or LAM)

have the privilege in their “tradition” for constructing

structured data (metadata).

Linked Open Data (LOD) provides a web environment for

LAM to curate & integrate internal & external resources.

Different kinds of data about the same object thus can

be created by distributed actors/agents, and then be

aggregated into a single LOD graph.

In short, LAM is benefited from adding value to their

metadata by linking to the LOD with previously unknown

& unexplored resources (e.g. other library sources, non-

library sources, and multiple domain knowledge bases,

etc. )

1) Linked data is for technical interoperability;

2) open data is for legal interoperability;

3) the benefits for Library is to bring Library Data outside the

Library Wall, linking to the Web World

Rather going to the Vocabulary War in the LAM

community that I am not familiar with …. seeking

available tool development may work more positive

results.

Happy to hear that Getty is going to progress

themselves in LOD. (anticipated that the data will be

published under the ODC_BY 1.0 license; begin

with AAT and then to TGN, ULAN, and finally

CONA, from late 2013 through 2015.)

One exception: LODLAM Pattern /reminds me

the Design Pattern in Semantic Web. / other

missing on Taxonomy Alignment Map session

“The universe of methods for representing cultural

heritage resources is growing rapidly, despite the

multiple standards that already exist across the

library, archive, and museum domain.

These various standards may address common

problems, but there is little explicit coordination

among the solutions.

As Linked Data Principles increasingly allow us to

“mix and match” vocabularies, we need a new way

to understand the available techniques that solve

specific representation problems.”

Only 2 sessions notes are

listed in this official page.

However, there are several

notes within this website or

on other websites.

http://summit2013.lodlam.net/category/session-notes/

The same text fragment

(“session notes”) can be

annotated by different users,

and displayed annotations on

the same web page.

18 more LODLAM 2013 session

notes (on the LODLAM website or

not) can be annotated, connected,

and found through Pundit.

6. Proposition (1) Potential / LOD + LAM :

Web is the biggest library for all human.

DBpedia and Freebase have been played an

important role as the Web Library resources.

Libraries have long preserved/curated

massive & quality datasets. The hidden

treasure of the library data not only provides

opportunities but also offers a backbone of

trust for the Semantic Web.

(3) Semantic Annotation & Metadata

Releasing:

Semantic annotations have stirred up what LAM’s structured data toward more semantics, and get better at them by releasing & linking to LOD.

Human/Semi-automatic/Automatic Tools in three major Semantic Web conferences.

Releasing more: reach more, reuse more, and remix more.
